A receptacle-like or plug-like optical connector has a body with a rear end and an end face that is opposite from and forward of the rear end. A longitudinal direction is defined between the rear end and the end face, and the end face extends generally perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The end face has opposite first and second edges, and opposite third and fourth edges that extend between the first and second edges in a lateral direction. A plurality of arrays of optical terminuses are positioned at the end face and, and each array extends in the lateral direction across the end face. The optical connector includes one or more relatively large alignment members. A first alignment member is proximate to the third edge of the end face and extends in the longitudinal direction and a second alignment member is proximate to the fourth edge of the end face and extends in the longitudinal direction. The body of the optical connector can be a stack of mufti-fiber connectors, and the optical connector can further include optical fiber ribbons that are respectively held by the connectors.
