ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an optical duplex connector which has two optical waveguides, a connector housing, in which the optical waveguides are arranged with a defined lateral spacing in relation to each other, and a triggering mechanism for locking and/or unlocking the optical connector with respect to a coupling partner. The triggering mechanism comprises at least one interacting part, which interacts with at least one corresponding part of the coupling partner for locking and/or unlocking. In this case, the at least one interacting part is arranged, with respect to the plugging direction, in the lateral region between the two optical waveguides or extends along this lateral region. This leads to a particularly compact connector structure.
