A ferrule holder 30 of an optical fibre connector has an elongate tubular body. One end of the body has a plurality of coaxially extending tines 34 arranged to permit the insertion of a ferrule 22 therebetween. An annular or part annular compression element 38 is a force fit over the tines thereby to effect clamping of the ferrule between the tines. Housing or coupling nut 10, compression spring 18 and flanges 12, 40 are shown. Female 22 may have a recess (42, Fig. 5). <IMAGE> |
