Abstract
An optical connector arrangement for use on the bottom of a metallic box, the connector providing optical connection between a printed circuit card inserted into the metallic box and an optical cable. A sleeve assembly couples the connector to the box so as to provide lateral mobility of the connector with respect to the box. This lateral mobility facilitates alignment between an optical terminal protruding from the printed circuit card and an optical terminal of the cable. The connector further includes means for maintaining a pressure between the two terminals.
