ABSTRACT A fiber optical connector includes a pair of fiber sup- porting members each having at least one axially aligned channel for accommodating the giber. A fiber holding member is associated with each supporting member and includes at least one projection for engaging a fiber within respective channel. The holding and supporting members form an integral assembly for holding the fibers with the ends thereof pro- jecting a predetermined distance from the end of respective channels. A separate fiber receiving member includes a fiber junction length to hold said projecting fibers in end to end relationship. A U-shaped transversely displaceable member is provided for engaging and securing respective fiber tips at the junction of the fibers within said channel. The respective channels of the supporting members are inclined downwardly in an axial direction toward the channel at the junction region whereby a bend in the respective fibers tend to urge the fibers toward the bottom of the channel. Each supporting member and the receiving member include compli- mentary means for attaching the supporting members in opposed assembled relationship to the fiber receiving member and axially aligning the respective channels whereby a continuous optical path is provided.
