Abstract
An optical fiber connector device includes an optical fiber connector and an insert unit. The insert unit hash a housing and a connecting mechanism. The housing surrounds an axis, and has an outer wall, a surrounding wall, and a cover member. The outer wall defines a first insert opening on the axis, and has a main opening spaced apart from the axis. The outer wall and the surrounding wall are molded as one piece. The cover member covers removably the main opening. The connecting mechanism has a first connecting member surrounded by the outer wall and connected to the optical fiber connector, and a second connecting member surrounded by the surrounding wall, coupled to the first connecting member, and adapted to be connected to another optical fiber connector.
