Abstract:
An optical fiber connecting device ( 100 ) and method of optically connecting two optical fibers ( 50, 50′ ) is described. The device ( 100 ) includes a housing ( 110 ), and first and second mechanical elements ( 130, 150 ) disposed within the housing ( 110 ). A first actuation cap ( 140 ) is disposed adjacent the first mechanical element ( 130 ) to secure a first optical fiber ( 50 ) within the first mechanical element ( 130 ) upon actuation, and a second actuation cap ( 160 ) disposed adjacent the second mechanical element ( 150 ) to secure a second optical fiber ( 50′ ) within the second mechanical element ( 150 ) upon actuation. The first and second optical fibers ( 50, 50′ ) can be positioned, secured and actuated in the connection device ( 100 ) at the same or at different times.

Claim (Index 2):
