Abstract
An optical connector serves for connecting a light wave conductor end to a coupling partner. An end of a freely disposed plug pin insertable into a receiver of the coupling partner is received for coupling. The connector has at least two catch arms, which hold the connector to the coupling partner in a connected state. The catch arms extend out from a foot end of the plug pin in a direction toward a front side of the plug pin and run at least in sections along the plug pin. An optical connection is also provided.
