ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly is disclosed for detachably connecting fiber optic cables with the fibers making a one-on-one engagement. The subject connector assembly includes means for spreading the fibers from the tightly packed bundle of the cable to a substantially circular array which allows the individual fibers to be mated on a one-to-one basis with like spread fibers of a second cable fixed in a mating connector half. Thus the subject connector obviates the previous problems of potting the fibers in a connector and the inefficiency of utilizing bundles of fibers mated together.
