ABSTRACT:
A connector for connecting the opposing ends of a pair of light-transmitting cables, or the like, includes a slit sleeve externally tapered in opposite directions. A pair of tubular members are arranged to respectively fit over the opposite ends of the sleeve and are axially displaceable to force the sleeve radially inwardly into clamping engagement with a pair of cable terminals fitted in the sleeve. The cable terminals are held in close contact with each other, thereby to ensure easy, efficient, and axially aligned coupling of the cables.
