The invention relates to an optical connector which is used in the field of the optical communication. As a counter optical connector 100 for the optical connector, a plug of the square or round type is used. In the optical connector, a cover 30 is attached in an openable and closable manner to the body 10 having a fitting hole portion 17 into which the counter optical connector 100 is to be inserted. The fitting hole portion 17 is formed by an internal space which is surrounded by a cylindrical wall 15 disposed in the body 10. The cover 30 has a covering wall portion 31 which is fittable to and detachable from an outside of the body 10. The optical connector performs functions that, even when the counter optical connector 100 is wrenched during an inserting or extracting operation, the wrenching force is not transmitted to the cover, and that the external appearance can be changed only by changing the design of the cover.
