Abstract
An optical connector of an embodiment of the present invention includes a fixing member made up of two half sprit members engaged with each other, the fixing member applying external pressure, toward an optical fiber combining section of a spring push, to a protection tube which covers a stair part of an outer circumferential surface of the optical fiber combining section. The fixing member securely fixes the protection tube to the optical fiber combining section. As such, it is possible to provide a general-purpose optical connector having a high reliability that an optical fiber cord is unlikely to come off from the optical connector.
