Abstract
An optical fiber connector with a connector housing that holds a ferrule includes a retractable shutter having a shutter plate and a shutter actuator. The shutter actuator is slidably connected to the connector housing for movement relative to the connector housing between a front position and a rear position. The shutter actuator is configured to engage the mating interface as the optical fiber connector is plugged into the mating interface whereby the shutter actuator moves relative to the connector housing from the front position to the back position. The shutter plate is connected to the shutter actuator such that the shutter actuator is configured to drive the shutter plate to move between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position, the shutter plate is located to shield the ferrule. In the retracted position, the shutter plate is located expose the ferrule.
