Abstract
There is provided an optical connector construction tool, which is constructed as a single component, and is compact in size and simple, wherein the construction tool allows an operation of withdrawing a wedge to be more reliably performed, and a manufacturing costs to be reduced. The optical connector construction tool comprises a base plate, a wedge provided to a bottom surface of the base plate and inserted into a mechanical splice part of an optical connector, a pair of arms extending from both sides of the base plate, and protrusions projecting from the arms toward the base plate, the protrusions engaging with the bottom of the base plate and deflecting the base plate upward as a result of the arms being laterally brought together.
