Abstract
A low-reflection fiber-optic connector. The fiber-optic connector includes a ferrule that includes a fiber passage and an optical fiber traversing the fiber passage. The optical fiber includes a polished fiber end that is substantially flush with a ferrule end face. The ferrule end face, in an area surrounding the polished fiber end, is modified to reduce an optical reflectivity.
