Abstract
An optical connector plug with a shutter to be fitted to an optical connector adapter includes: a plug frame configured to hold a ferrule; a square cylindrical front housing including a shutter that opens and closes with a movement of the ferrule; a locking housing fixedly and integrally connected to the plug frame and configured to be fitted into and be locked with the optical connector adapter; and a spring that biases the front housing forward. The plug frame is moved forward by a rearward movement of the front housing, a front opening edge portion of the plug frame expands a shutter into a straight shape, and the shutter includes slits straddling over a boundary between a flat portion and a curved portion when light is blocked, and a protrusion formed by a center portion being deformed by the expanded shutter when being fitted is cancelled.
