ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber connector (3) includes an insert body (31), a door (33), a housing (35), a spring member (36) an optical element (37) and a spacer (39). The door includes a protuberance (332) and defines a through hole (331) for receiving a shaft (34). The shaft is held between the insert body and the housing. The door can rotate inwardly into an inserting hole (351) defined by the housing when a fiber plug (4) is inserted the inserting hole. When the fiber plug is pulled out from the housing, the door is rotated to cover the inlet side of the inserting hole due to a spring force applied by the spring member against the door.
