Abstract

An optical connector plug has a front housing 1, a rear housing 2, a ferrule 3, a coil spring 4 and an optical cord fixing member 5, and in addition to the ferrule 3 and the coil spring 4, the optical cord fixing member 5 for fixing a tension resistive member and a cord outer jacket is received and held within an internal through space defined when the front housing 1 and the rear housing 2 are coupled. Also, upon assembling the optical connector plug, assembling of these members 1 to 5 can be realized by movement in an axial direction as much as possible. Accordingly, assembling of the optical connector plug is facilitated and suitable for automatic assembling.
