ABSTRACT There is disclosed a connector for colinear axial alignment of a pair of optical waveguides, comprising: at least three elongate resilient rod members in parallel relationship defining an interstitial passageway therebetween. Each of the rod members has a larger diameter at first and second opposite ends thereof, and a smaller diameter segment intermediate the ends. The passageway admits respective waveguides therein from each end, with forward end surfaces of the waveguides positioned in an opposed adjacent location intermediate of the rod members length. A sleeve of elastomeric material having an external stepped profile has an axial passageway receiving the rod members, the passageway being sectionally profiled for holding the rod members parallel. Crimping collars can be moved towards each other to compress the sleeve and exert increasing radial pressure upon the smaller diameter rod segments.
