ABSTRACT:
A connector for coupling a plurality of pairs of single optical fibers is disclosed. A pair of optical fiber terminations abut in a V-groove. Each termination comprises a set of more than three cylinders closely packed side-by-side to provide a plurality of interstitial apertures therebetween into which single fibers are individually inserted. Because the two terminations are positioned in the V-groove, the fibers in one termination will be accurately aligned with corresponding fibers in the other termination.
