Abstract | The sleeve housing is made of a resilient plastic material, and it has a cylindrical end portion. The cylindrical portion is split, whereby the split portions can be deformed to allow for the insertion of an alignment sleeve containing an attenuating element. The internal portions of the deformable portion of the cylindrical outer portion of the sleeve housing include shoulders which will capture and retain the alignment sleeve when the alignment sleeve has been inserted into the end of the sleeve housing. Consequently, the sleeve housing is able to retain the alignment sleeve without the need for a separate retainer piece. An advantage of the present invention is that a ganged sleeve housing can be made in which there are several connectors which are formed adjacent to one another on a single molded assembly. |
