Abstract
The invention relates to an optical pin-and-socket connector for the detachable connection of a plurality of optical cores () having an insert ('), in which the cores () are inserted on a first side, the cores () ending in said connector with the optical fibers () thereof, and said connector having an expansion device () on a second side, on which the beams exit the fibers () in an expanded manner. A simplification of the assembly and installation is achieved in that the insert (′) comprises two separate partial elements () that can be assembled, one of which is configured as an expansion device () and the other is configured as a retaining block () for receiving the ends of the optical cores ().
