The present invention is directed to a connector assembly and its use for the connection of optical fibers, in association with a connector comprising a longitudinally extending body, said body comprising a first end and a second end, and said body having a conduit extending from said first end to said second end, and said body comprising a plurality of finger projections that extend longitudinally at each end of said first and second ends, the connector assembly including a first collar circumferentially coupled to said end of said connector and a second collar circumferentially coupled to said second end of said connector, the connector assembly comprises a connector housing of four portions, which, when assembled, define a connector chamber for receiving and retaining a connector as aforesaid, when coupled with a collar, the four portions of the connector assembly configured to exert a tractional force on the connector and connector collar when they are positioned in the connector chamber, by axial rotation of a first part of the connector housing relative to a second part; by the application of such tractional force on the connector, when positioned in the connector assembly, the conduit of the connector, due to amorphous phase deformation being enlarged sufficiently, as a result of and to the extent of the amorphous and elastic capacity of deformation of the connector, in diameter to permit the entry of optical fibers to be connected; and by the opposite axial rotation of the connector housing ends, there is a reduction of tractional force, permitting the collar and connector to return to a rest position, securing, by elastic capacity, the optical fibers and abutment of the ends of the optical fibers for transmission of optical signals.
