Abstract
A connector ferrule body has a flat inner surface perpendicular to its axis and at one end of an axial cavity in the ferrule body. A hub has an opening in which an optical fiber is fastened so the fiber extends perpendicular to a flat end face. The flat end face of a hub is seated on the flat surface of the ferrule body and held against the flat surface of the ferrule body by a spring. Openings in the side wall of the ferrule body permit insertion of tools to slide the hub radially on the flat surface of the ferrule body to precisely position the optical fibre within the body. The spring holds the hub in the adjusted position.
