ABSTRACT:
A device for making a splice between optical fibers, has a hollow cylindrical elastomer member within a housing. The elastomer member seats in a V-groove and a screw is driven against the elastomer member to deform the member and so grip and render coaxial a pair of fibers having ends meeting within the elastomer member. Jacketed portions of the two fibers are clamped on each side of the junction zone.
