Abstract
The plug connector can be plugged into a coupling element. The connector has a holder in which at least one optical wave guide plug is mounted so as to be axially displaceable counter to a spring force. The holder is inserted into a carrier element. Elements are provided which allow the holder to be fixed in at least two different discrete axial positions relative to the carrier element. The elements are positively engaging contours formed on the holder and the carrier element. The different discrete positions enable easy and simple adaptation of the configuration to different plug-in depths.
