ABSTRACT:
A multiple connector for releasably connecting a plurality of pairs of optical fibres having two connector members, one having an axially moveable member therein with a plurality of axial holes, the other member having a plurality of aligning members extending axially. When assembled, an aligning member is aligned with an axial hole. The aligning member has a central bore portion a close fit on an uncoated fibre and tapered bores leading into the central bore portion. The axially moveable member is resiliently biased to project from a front face of the related connector member. On assembly the axially moveable member is pushed back into the connector member to expose one set of fibre ends which enter the aligning members. The other set of fibre ends are initially positioned in the aligning members. Preferably holding members are attached to the fibres and inserted from the rear of each connector member. This permits rear insertion of fibres. The holding members having locating members thereon for positioning the holding members, and the fibres axially in the connector members. Housings enclose the rear ends of the connector members.
