Abstract
A connector means includes a connector housing provided with a plurality of bores which is defined by a pair of plastic bases each having a plurality of hemicycle grooves each of which has an inner diameter 1 to several .mu.m larger than an outer diameter of each of the optical cables to be connected. After the optical fibres are inserted into the respective bores and secured therein, one end surface of the connector housing is polished. A pair of connected housings are retained so that the polished end surfaces abut on each other thereby to attain a connection between a plurality of optical cables.
