A fiber clamp (220) for clamping an optical fiber (16) includes a first
clamp section (228) and a second clamp section (230) that flexibly urges
the optical fiber (16) against the first clamp section (228). The second
clamp section (230) can include a retainer housing (244) and a pair of
spaced apart flexible members (246) that extend from the retainer housing
(244). The flexible members (246) flexibly urge the optical fiber (16)
against the first clamp section (228). A fastener assembly (232) can be
used to urge the clamp sections (228) (230) directly together.
