ABSTRACT:
A connector for a light-transmitting cable 13 comprises a body member 10 in which are located a sleeve 11 of elastomeric material and a grip member 12. The grip member is segmented and deformable under radial pressure applied by the sleeve. The ends of two cables 13 may be inserted into the grip member 12 and means 15 are provided for applying axial pressure to the elastomeric sleeve 11 to cause it to extend in a radial direction to exert pressure on the grip member. The grip member 12 then grips the cable 13 at a number of equally-spaced points around its periphery.
