A nose assembly is provided for connecting the end of an optical fiber to an optical device (e.g., a transmitter). In one embodiment, the nose assembly includes a housing having a longitudinal bore formed therethrough and a fiber retaining assembly coupled to the longitudinal bore. Advantageously, the fiber retaining assembly can be secured to the housing primarily by friction fit, requiring no epoxy or other adhesive. In one embodiment, the fiber retaining assembly includes a tapered ring, a split sleeve ring, and a fiber stop. The back end of a portion of the housing, tapered ring, split sleeve ring and/or fiber stop can be constructed of stainless steel 304L so as to be weldable to an optical component, such as a packaging assembly.
