ABSTRACT:
An alignment sleeve for insuring the lateral alignment of a pair of abutting fiber optic cable ends which are inserted into a connector in a light transmissive relationship. The alignment device is in the form of an elongated, generally tubular, relatively thin-walled, hollow sleeve having a mid-section which includes three inwardly projecting portions regularly spaced about the sleeve. The inserted fiber optic cables abut in the mid-region of the sleeve and are laterally aligned by the inwardly directed forces thereby applied.
