Abstract
An optical fiber connector can terminate a plurality of optical fiber cables, each with a jacket encasing at least one optical fiber and a strength element. A connector housing has a back post. The optical fibers of the plurality of optical fiber cables extend into the connector housing through the back post. A single crimp ring crimps the strength members of the plurality of optical fiber cables onto the back post. In a method of terminating a plurality of optical fiber cables, the cables are inserted through a single crimp ring, optical fibers of each of the cables are terminated in a multifiber ferrule, the cables are loaded into a back body of a connector housing, and strength members of the cables are crimped onto a back post using a single crimp ring.
