Abstract
An optical connector is provided to reliably hold a ferrule assembly in a housing to enable it stable optical connection. The optical connector is able to accomplish stable connection without any concern of displacement of an optical connecting end portion of the ferrule, even if the optical connector is subjected to repeated connecting and disconnecting operations. In the optical connector, a ferrule assemble having a polygonal prism-shaped flange is accommodated and held so as to elastically reciprocate in a housing of a cavity which has a polygonal engaging portion to receive and engage the flange of the ferrule assemble. A protrusion is formed at an end part of each engaging wall in the direction of inserting the ferrule assemble to rise toward an insertion opening for the ferrule assemble, and each protruding portion of the protrusion is provided to have each different rising height thereof.
