    Abstract: This optical connector includes a ferrule, a plug frame, and an elastic member. The ferrule holds a glass fiber of an optical fiber. The plug frame receives the ferrule. The elastic member holds, with a first length, the ferrule in a first position in the plug frame, or holds, with a second length shorter than the first length, the ferrule in a second position in the plug frame. When the ferrule is in the first position, the ferrule and the plug frame are in contact with each other via the tapered surface, and the pivotal movement of the ferrule to the plug frame is restricted. When the ferrule is in the second position, the ferrule is not in contact with the plug frame and is pivotable to the plug frame, and the ferrule is in a floating state.
