A tuned multiple fiber optical connector and a method for tuning same is disclosed. A first connector housing retains each of a first plurality of optical fiber ends in a predetermined location. The first connector housing has a first key element. A core of each of the first plurality of optical fiber ends is oriented in a predetermined fashion with respect to the first key element. A second connector housing retains each of a second plurality of optical fiber ends in a predetermined location. The second connector housing comprises a second key element. A core of each of the second plurality of optical fiber ends is oriented in a predetermined fashion with respect to the second key element. The first and the second connector housings are coupled such that the key elements are disposed in a predetermined relation one to the other. Therefore, the core of each of the first plurality of optical fiber ends is substantially in alignment with the core of a corresponding optical fiber end of the second plurality of optical fiber ends.
