A multi-channel fiber optic cable connector is provided for connecting the terminal ends of fiber optic cables utilizing alignment sleeves to align the adjacent termini of optical fibers included within respective ones of the cables. A retention mechanism, a sleeve retainer, secured within the connector, is provided that secures the alignment sleeve within the connector. In another aspect, a single floating seal assembly extends around a termini and seals between the termini and a connector housing. The single seal assembly provides a dual sealing function, sealing between an aperture of a floating collar and the termini body and sealing between the floating collar and a seal surface of a bore in the connector housing.
