Abstract
A fiber optic connector includes a connecting unit having a plurality of positioning grooves and a cover unit having a plurality of positioning blocks. The cover unit is operable to rotate relative to the connecting unit between an engaged position, where the positioning blocks are respectively disposed in the of said positioning grooves and are respectively and at least partially aligned with shoulder surfaces in the positioning grooves such that the cover unit is unable to move axially and forwardly relative to the connecting unit, and a separated position, where the positioning blocks are respectively misaligned from the shoulder surfaces to allow the cover unit to move axially and forwardly relative to the connecting unit.
