Provided is a multi-fiber optical connector which can be easily assembled by having a simple structure and provides high workability at the time of connection. Since a plate-shaped guideadapted to move a fiber is provided on an end surface and a gap x is provided on a rear surface of the plate-shaped guide, achieved is a structure in which each of fibersis mutually moved in an optical axis direction along a penetration hole h provided at the plate-shaped guideat the time of connecting connectors. Consequently, the respective fiberswhich can be elastically connected independently from each other can be collectively connected at the time of connecting the connectors, and furthermore, positioning accuracy between the respective fiberscan be improved when the connector is used as a multi-fiber optical connector
