ABSTRACT A fiber optic connector is disclosed for optically coupling a pair of fiber optic cables or a single fiber optic cable and a light source or detector. A terminal member includes a pair or identical matching halves defining a through hole extending axially there- through. The through hole has a first portion extending through a mating end of the terminal member and sized to snugly receive a length of the fiber core stripped of the outer coating and properly positioning the core with respect to the mating end of the terminal member. The through hole has a second portion extending through a rear end of the terminal member and sized for receiving the outer coating of the fiber optic cable. Projections are formed in the second portion of the through hole for clamping the outer coating to prevent lengthwise movement of the fiber optic cable relative to the terminal member. A ferrule member is positionable over the rear end of the terminal member for biasing the projections into clamping engagement with the outer coating of the fiber optic cable.
