<p>A connector for detachable connection of an end region, provided with a ferrule (4), of an optical waveguide (3) to another optical waveguide in a plug-in direction, has a housing (2) with a holding region (21) for guiding the ferrule (4), which is constructed such that the ferrule (4) is guided in an angularly moveable fashion with reference to the plug-in direction. The housing has a stress-relief region (7) for firmly connecting the optical waveguide (3) to the housing (2), in the region between the stress-relief region (7) and the holding region (21) at least one curvature-limiting region (8) being provided for limiting the outward bending of the optical waveguide (3) given an angular displacement of the ferrule (4) with reference to the plug-in direction. Given the suitable design of the curvature-limiting region (8), outward bending of the optical waveguide (3) beyond a maximum permissible curvature is prevented with the aid of the configuration according to the invention.</p> |
