Abstract

The invention relates to an optical fiber connector. The optical fiber connector comprises a mechanical splice assembly (2) and a connector main body with a first part (50) and a second part (51). The first part (50) of the connector main body (11) consists of a first cavity (501) and a second cavity (502) along with the length direction, as well as a hole (503) which is positioned in the front end, the hole (503) enters the second cavity (502) after penetrating the first cavity (501) along with the length direction of the first part (50), therefore, and the mechanical splice assembly (2) can be inserted and penetrate the first cavity (501) through the hole (503) of the first part (50) and then enter the second cavity (502) . The second part (51) of the connector main body (11) comprises a pair of cable clamping arms (60a and 60b) extending from the rear end of the first part (50), as well as an opening (511) which is positioned at the front end, and the opening (511) is led into the second cavity (502). The first part (50) of the connector main body (11) is used for holding the mechanical splice assembly (2), and the second part (51) of the connector main body (11) is used for holding an optical fiber cable (100).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to fiber optic connectors, cable assemblies and methods of manufacture. More particularly, the present invention relates to fiber optic connectors, cable assemblies, and methods of connecting fiber optic cables to connectors. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber communication network is widely used to transmit voice, video, data and other signals. As known to those skilled in the art, in optical fiber communication networks, optical fiber cables are the main carrier of signals. The fiber optic cables need to be spliced ​​in use because the fiber optic cables are made in predetermined lengths. With many connection points, fiber optic communication networks require cable branching and routing. Fiber optic connectors are commonly used to connect the ends of two fiber optic cables to facilitate changes in fiber optic cable routing configurations. Furthermore, the optical fibers in the cable must be termina...
