Abstract
An optical fiber terminal fixing member is configured to be inserted into an optical connector to fix an optical fiber terminal to a housing. The optical connector includes the optical fiber terminal attached to an end of an optical fiber cable, and the housing that holds the optical fiber terminal. The optical fiber cable includes an optical fiber, a tensile member disposed along a longitudinal direction of the optical fiber, and a coating portion that covers the optical fiber and the tensile member. The optical fiber terminal fixing member includes a main body, a fitting portion formed so as to project from the main body and configured to fit into a groove provided on an outer circumference of the optical fiber terminal, and a fixing structure for fixing the optical fiber terminal fixing member to the housing.
