A connector assembly for reversibly terminating an optical fiber comprises a housing having a cavity extending along a longitudinal axis. An elongate member having a groove extending along a surface thereof is provided within the cavity. An end portion of the fiber is aligned with a fiber stub within the groove such that the stub's splicing face is positioned opposite the fiber's splicing face. A splice anvil is mounted about the member with the anvil's clamping surface overlapping the abutting stub and fiber splicing faces. The clamping mechanism comprises step surfaces arranged along the member's surface adjacent the groove. When the anvil is moved from the released position to the clamped position, the anvil's inner surface is moved along the step surfaces in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis towards the groove, the anvil's clamping surface bringing a clamping force to bear on the abutting fiber and fiber stub.
