Abstract
A holder includes two receptacles, each for receiving an optical connector housing. At least one optical connector housing is mounted in its receptacle along the longitudinal axis of the receptacle with radial play in a direction transverse to the insertion direction. To facilitate handling and to prevent rattling of the optical connector housing, at least one flexible element acts on the optical connector housing that is mounted with play and brings the connector housing into a defined rest position.
