Claim Text:
1. An optical fiber connector comprising: a housing comprising a first sidewall, the housing defining a first receiving cavity in the first sidewall, the first receiving cavity comprising a first bottom surface parallel to the first sidewall, the housing defining two through holes running all the way through the first bottom surface; two first coupling lenses directly positioned on the first bottom surface, each of the two first coupling lenses totally covering a respective one of the two through holes; a RJ45 plug received in the first receiving cavity, the RJ45 plug comprising a first end surface and a second end surface opposite to the first end surface, the RJ45 plug defining a receiving recess extending all the way through the first end surface and the second end surface; a holder received in the receiving recess, the holder comprising a first outer surface and a second outer surface opposite to the first outer surface, the holder defining two receiving through holes running all the way through the first outer surface and the second outer surface; and two optical fibers, each of the two optical fibers received in a respective one of the two receiving through holes and optically aligned with a respective one of the two coupling lenses.
