Abstract:
The invention includes male and female fiber optic inline connectors constructed to be mated together. Each connector includes a cable passage extending through the connector for receiving one or more fiber optic cables. Flexible alignment fingers extend from a connector housing and are constructed and arranged to engage the sides of a fiber optic cable and properly align the cable with respect to the center of the cable passage to greatly reduce or eliminate the effects of tolerance stack up and associated loss of light. The flexible alignment fingers are generally spaced apart and radially positioned symmetrically with respect to the center of the cable passage.
