Abstract:
The connector (C) comprises: an anchoring element (30) encircling a bolt (20); a semi-tubular clamp (40) having an anterior end portion (41), fitted and retained in the anchoring member (30), and a rear end portion (42) internally provided with inner teeth (43), which, by interference, an extension of the cable cover (CC) of an optical cable (1, 2) is inserted and held; a tubular housing (50) surrounding the anchoring element (30) and the clamp (40). The clamp (40) comprises, in a median region (44), defined between its front end portion (41) and rear end portion (42), at least one pair of side and mutually opposing inner claws (45, 46) between which a fiber jacket (CF) extension of the optical cable (1, 2) is radially engaged and axially retained by interference.
