ABSTRACT:
A connector for optic fibres includes mechanism to bias the optic fiber forwardly so that a firm "light tight" connection is possible. A rigid end portion of an optic fiber cable extends slidably forward through a plug and is biased forwardly by a helical spring. The spring acts between a bearing of a housing an a bearing on the rigid end portion of the cable. The housing and the plug are connected firmly together by means of snap fastening between them.
