ABSTRACT:
A duplex optical fiber connector terminates two single or multi-mode optical fibers of a cable and is adapted to be joined to a receptacle being polarized correspondingly to a keying element of the connector. The keying element is slidable into multiple positions so that a recess in the keying element mates with a correspondingly positioned rib of a receptacle. The recess of the keying element is positioned within a channel axially extending on the connector exterior body.
