ABSTRACT:
A connector for an optical fiber cable is disclosed wherein strain relief features are provided for minimizing strain applied either to the external jacket of the cable or to the fiber such as during connecting operations is prevented from being coupled to the optical fiber. The connector thus includes strain relief members for securely anchoring the outer jacket of the cable and for anchoring strain relief fibers contained within the cable. Also, a resilient member is provided for allowing limited rearward movement of a member within which the optical fiber is anchored such as may occur during connection.
