ABSTRACT:
It is important that in an optical fibre connector the ends of the fibres should contact or very nearly contact to avoid excessive optical losses. They must be accurately aligned and lateral movements, causing varying optical output, be minimized. In this invention, the fibre or fibres are secured in grooves formed in flat surfaces in two abutting blocks and the blocks are clamped together with their flat surfaces in contact with a further flat surfaced member. The clamp consists of a cam surface formed in a housing which is adapted to contact a portion of the further member when the blocks are introduced into the housing.
