The invention relates to an optical connector for detachably connecting a circuit board to a backplane. The inventive connector comprises at least one plug (10A) and at least one socket (10B) for receiving the plug (10A), whereby the socket (10B) comprises an outer housing (12) and an inner housing (13). Said inner housing (13) is mounted in the outer housing (12) such that it can be displaced in the direction of plug insertion, and a locking means (25,26) prevents the inner housing from being displaced inside the outer housing (12). In addition, unlocking means (20) are assigned to the plug (10A) which unlock the first locking means (25,26) when the plug (10A) is completely inserted into the socket (10B). Second locking means (20,21,23,24) are assigned to the plug (10A) which interlock said plug (10A) and socket (10B) when the plug (10A) is completely inserted. The aim of the invention is to obtain a compact construction and to increase the versatility of the plug system. To this end, the second locking means are configured such that they simultaneously serve as unlocking means for the first locking means. |
