ABSTRACT:
An adhesiveless connector for optical fiber cables is formed by a body having a profiled through passage of inwardly directed threads and a narrow fiber passing bore at the opposite end, a fiber clamp received in the body and having its axial bore, and a clamp insert having exterior threads engaging with the threads of the body and a plurality of cantilever arms which engage the body and fiber clamp to securely grip the fiber and buffer of an optical cable passing therethrough. The termination also includes a cylindrical eyelet which can be used to crimp the cable strength members to the connector.
