Abstract
A ferrule for electro-optic cables is formed of identical mating halves which, when assembled, provide accurate alignment of the fiber carried thereby. Each ferrule half has a mating surface with a longitudinally extending profiled groove which grips the cable and fiber and centers the fiber with respect to the ferrule. The ferrule halves are preferably permanently bonded together by well known means.
