ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber connector (1) includes a housing (10), an insulated body (20), an optical element (30) received in the housing, and a spacer (40) for securing the optical element in the housing. The housing defines a front and a rear receiving spaces (11, 12). The front receiving space is for receiving the insulated body and an optical plug (60), and the rear receiving space is for receiving the optical element. A partition wall (13) is formed between the front and the rear receiving spaces and defines an aperture (14) thereon. The aperture forms a tapered face (15) at a rear portion thereof for preventing the optical fiber plug from inserting into the optical fiber connector.
