ABSTRACT:
A plug for an optical fiber cable comprises a plug proper having a line-inserting portion for insertion of an optical fiber and a primary covering layer in a state communicating with the interior, an optical fiber-inserting portion for inserting only the optical fiber, a cylindrical portion formed on the outer wall of the line-inserting portion to caulk and fix the line, and a pressing portion having a concave-convex part formed to anchor the filamentary reinforcing fiber exposed from the end of the optical fiber cable onto the periphery of the pressing portion, and at least one ferrule for caulking the filamentary reinforcing fiber exposed from the end of the optical fiber cable to the concave-convex part of the pressing portion of the plug proper, and further, caulking the secondary covering layer. By adopting the above-mentioned structure, an optical fiber cable plug is obtained in which the primary covering material is caulked and secured, and therefore, problems such as a turning and protrusion of the line of the optical fiber do not arise.
