Abstract of the Disclosure A cylindrical ferrule type optical fiber connector (20) includes an attenuator arrangement which includes an element (70) that is capable of movement during the assembly of the connector. The connector includes a cylindrically shaped sleeve (60) which has a longitudinally extending slot (61) formed through the wall thereof and which is adapted to receive a cylindrical plug (40) in each end thereof, each plug being spring-biased outwardly from a cap (45) and terminating an optical fiber (21). The attenuator element has a disc-shaped portion (74) which is disposed within the sleeve. A neck portion (76) which extends through the slot of the sleeve connects the disc-like portion to a supporting head portion (72) which engages an outer surface of the sleeve. As one plug is inserted into the sleeve, it engages the attenuator element and causes it to be moved along the slot in the sleeve. The insertion of the second plug causes it to engage an opposite side of the element and to move it and the spring-loaded first plug in an opposite direction to a rest position. - 19 -
