Abstract
A fiber optic connector is disclosed in which the cable strength member termination comprises inner and outer sleeves surrounding the cable. One of the opposed surfaces of the sleeves is disposed at an angle which opens rearwardly. A clamping ring is disposed between the sleeves. The strength member of the cable is folded back between the angular surface and the clamping ring so that when aa rearward axial load is applied to the cable, the strength member will become more tightly clamped.
