In an optical fiber connector 1, optical fibers 2 are inserted respectively into ferrules 3 to form optical fiber plugs 4, and distal end portions of the optical fiber plugs 4 are inserted into a connector housing 6, and a holder 7 is fitted on the connector housing from rear end portions of the optical fiber plugs. The optical fiber connector 1 is fitted into a light receiving-emitting device 8, so that distal end surfaces of the optical fiber plugs are kept spaced a predetermined distance respectively from light receiving-emitting elements received within the light receiving-emitting device. The holder includes insertion holes 41 for respectively passing the optical fibers therethrough in a direction of insertion of the optical fiber plugs, and introduction notches 45 communicating respectively with the insertion holes in a direction intersecting the inserting direction. A ferrule-pressing member 5 is mounted on the optical fiber plugs so as to spring-bias the optical fiber plugs, fitted respectively into the insertion holes through the respective introduction notches after the distal end surfaces of the optical fibers are polished, toward the connector housing. <IMAGE> |
