ABSTRACT:
This plug (200) is intended to interact with a mating connector or other female connection element comprising a tubular housing (103) provided with two diametrically opposite studs (109) for engaging and locking. According to the invention, the plug comprises: an elongate central body (210) accommodating the fiber termination (211, 212) with a cylindrical region (250) whose external section corresponds with the internal section of the housing of the mating connection, and two elastically deformable arms (220), each connected by one (222) of their ends to a rear region (218) of the central body and extending in along the central body substantially parallel to the general axis of the latter and toward the respective studs of the mating connector, the free end (223) of each arm each carrying a flange (230) provided, on its face turned toward the central body, with a cavity (231) of cross-section at least partially corresponding with the external section of the respective stud of the mating connector.
