OPTICAL CONNECTOR PLUG

摘要

An optical connector plug includes a front housing, configured to hold a ferrule and to be fitted with a fitting portion of a coupling counterpart member, and a rear housing, mounted to the front housing to be allowed to slide toward front and rear directions at a rear side of the front housing. The front housing includes a latching piece with elasticity. The latching piece includes a locking portion, engageable with an engaging portion for fitting of the coupling counterpart member, and a releasing portion, configured to release the locking portion from an engaging state with the engaging portion. The rear housing includes a releasing lever. The releasing lever includes a hook portion, formed at a front part and configured to engage with the releasing portion at a time of retreat of the rear housing, so as to activate a release, and a knob portion for retreat.
