Part of an optical fiber connector

Optical connector

An optical-fiber connector with protective cap includes a connector body and a retaining member which are fitted over an optical-fiber sleeve member, a fixation member, and a spring. The protective cap is fitted over the retaining member and the connector body. Each second engaging portion of the protective cap is engaged with a corresponding first engaging portion of the connector body. After the protective cap draws the optical-fiber connector to pass through a guiding pipeline, the protective cap is removed, and the optical-fiber connector is assembled with a fixation sleeve and a coupling cap to form a standard connector.

Optical-fiber connector with a protective cap and standard connector

Optical fiber connector

An optical-fiber connector includes a coupling member, a core component, a sleeve member, a metal retaining member, and a pressing member. The core component is in the receiving space. The metal retaining member is connected to one of two ends of the coupling member. The elastic arm of the metal retaining member inclinedly extends toward the other end of the coupling member. Two sides of the elastic arm have a plurality of retaining structures. The sleeve member is at the other end of the coupling member and is connected to the pressing member. The pressing portion of the pressing member extends toward the elastic arm. The metal retaining member is adapted to be buckled with an adapter, so that the service life of the optical-fiber connector can be prolonged.
