OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTING COUPLER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A sleeve for connecting optical fibers has a cylindrical shape and an axial passage extending there- through. The sleeve defines a notch in an outer periphery of a central portion of the sleeve. The notch extends radially inward to expose the passage. The width, in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the sleeve, across the opening into the passage provided by the notch, is less than the diameter of optical fibers being connected in the sleeve. The notch allows visual inspection of optical fibers in the passage. The length of the notch may be five times the diameter of the optical fibers being connected. An adhesive may be disposed in the notch which provides a matching function between the optical fibers. The sleeve may be surrounded by a housing to form a coupler.
