Provided is a fiber optic connector. The fiber optic connector includes: a connector body, a locking mechanism, a frame, a motion conversion assembly and a handle. The motion conversion assembly is capable of converting a translation of the handle into a rotation. The connector is unlocked from an adaptor by pulling the handle. This avoids a case where a locking protrusion is disengaged from a locking slot only when a driving arm is pressed from above the connector, and minimizes an operating space required by pressing the driving arm when the connector is inserted or removed, so that the adaptors and/or the connectors can be mounted at a higher density. Moreover, the handle is connected to the driving arm via the motion conversion assembly.
