ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a hermaphroditic fiber optic connector having provision for an automatic protective covering for the fiber optic for covering the end at any time that the connector is demated. In one embodiment the connector provides precise positioning of parallel disposed fiber end surfaces with the angle of the end surface being preferably greater than the sum of the Brewster Angle and the Numerical Aperture (NA) of the fiber to assure reflectionless high efficiency transmission.
