-1- M. N. Sitabkhan 2 FIBER OPTIC CONNECTOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An actuated fiber optic connector is disclosed in which the plug and receptacle connector members are axially mated with the fiber optic ferrule in the plug connector member sliding into a V-shaped channel in the receptacle connector member with zero insertion force to abut the receptacle fiber optic ferrule therein. A leaf spring is mounted in the channel. An axially slidable actuating sleeve is mounted on the plug connector member. When the connector members are mated, the sleeve engages a radially shiftable plunger in the receptacle, forcing the plunger inwardly to automatically urge the spring, and thus the ferrules, into the V-channel thereby precisely laterally aligninq the optical fibers in the ferrules.
