ABSTRACT:
A simplified and low cost optical fiber connector incorporating strain relief means comprising a hollow housing within which a connection of optical fibers is isolated and stabilized from external strains and stresses by chocks located at opposing ends of the passageway through the housing which releasably secure the fibers in cooperation with the housing. The novel connector may be used with both polymeric and glass optical fibers, and with optical fibers which have or do not have buffer coatings. The novel connector may also be used to provide optical fiber connections incorporating strain relief means to a fiber optic splitter, a fiber optic coupler, and an opto-electronic package.
