An optical fiber connector comprising a first resilient member having an elongated V-shaped groove in the surface thereof into which two fibers to be optically connected are disposed end-to-end. A second resilient member is urged against that portion of the fibers opposite the first member, thereby causing a slight deformation of the second member and the slot-forming walls. The substantial equilibrium of forces applied to the two fibers by the resilient members causes their axes to become aligned. The preferred embodiment is capable of connecting corresponding fibers of two bundles and also includes means for positioning the endfaces of the fibers of one bundle in virtual contact with the endfaces of the fibers of the other bundle.
