ABSTRACT:
A method of terminating a glass optical fibre (13) by clamping the optical fibre (26) in a passageway in a ferrule (11) with an end portion (26) of the optical fibre core received in a bore in the ferrule end (17) and projecting beyond the ferrule end (17); severing the end portion (26) to provide an optical face at a predetermined distance from the ferrule end (17); and, radially crimping the ferrule (13) to advance the ferrule (11) relative to the optical fibre core (13) to locate the ferrule end (17) flush with the optical face.
