ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic connector member having a removable front insulator for protecting the faces of fiber optic bundles mounted within the connector. The insulator is retained within the connector shell by resilient retention fingers. An elongated slot extends through the insulator. An extraction tool is provided for releasing the retention fingers. The tool embodies a pulling element that extends through the slot in the insulator to allow the insulator to be withdrawn from the connector shell without damaging the fiber optic elements therein.
