ABSTRACT:
An optical fibre connector comprises two co-operating parts each of which includes a fibre alignment member formed on one plane surface with relatively narrow parallel grooves for receiving the ends of optical fibres and relatively wide grooves accurately positioned relative to the narrow grooves for receiving connector alignment pins or rollers for the accurate alignment of the connector parts and the fibre alignment members thereof, said connector parts also including clamping means for clamping optical fibres in the relatively narrow grooves so that the fibres become compressed into the material of the alignment members and in the case of at least one of the connector parts for clamping one or more connector alignment pins or rollers in the relatively wide grooves.
