LENSED OPTIC FIBER TERMINUS AND METHOD ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An optic fiber connection apparatus and method are provided which enables positioning of a lens or bead at the end of an optic fiber at a selected distance from the end of the contact or terminus while maintaining a closely controlled lateral position of the bead. The contact has a hole extending along its axis, with a cylindrical front portion of a diameter to closely surround the lens at the end of the optic fiber. In addition or alternatively, the hole that receives the fiber may have a diameter to closely surround the fiber. The optic fiber can be slid within the contact to extend its end beyond the contact so a lens can be formed on the tie of the fiber. Thereafter the fiber is slid backward into the contact. The lens is slid backward or forward against a positioning tool to the final lens position.
