A HERMAPHRODITE OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR Abstract of the Disclosure A hermaphrodite optical fiber connector includes a housing containing a plurality of inner rods and a plurality of outer rods. The inner rods are held in tangential contact with each other forming an aperture for receiving a fiber. An end of the fiber held in the aperture and ends of the inner rods terminate in a planar surface perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the fiber. The outer rods are secured between the inner rods and the housing and extend past the planar surface, protecting the end of the fiber from damage. The outer rods of one connector are spaced apart to accommodate between them the outer rods of a duplicate mating connector. The outer rods of the two duplicate mating connectors form a nest to accommodate the inner rods of both connectors to thereby accurately position and axially align both fibers.
