Description

ABSTRACT:
First and second ferrules of an optical fiber connector assembly are provided with angled apertures proximate their contacting ends. The angled apertures have a common axis when the two ferrules are assembled together, and the single optical fibers within the apertures are ground together with the ferrule end surfaces so that they are flush therewith. Feedback light resulting from end reflection is reflected outwardly of the cable, i.e. leaked, owing to the angularity of the fiber end surface with respect to the axis thereof.
