<p>An optical connector is provided for connecting an optical fibre (7) to, for example, a laser (4). The optical connector comprises a housing (1) defining a passage (2) therethrough and a stop (13) for abutment against a face of a ferrule (6) containing an optical fibre. The stop (13) is positioned and shaped so that in use the area of contact between the stop (13) and the ferrule (6) end face (12) is less than 10% of the total area of the end face of the ferrule, and the area of contact between the stop and the ferrule end face is close to a central axis of the ferrule. Many different designs of angled ferrule are available for reducing the level of optical reflections within optical systems. The present optical connector allows these many different designs of angled ferrules to be accurately aligned to an optical device.</p> |
