    Abstract: A new fiber optic connector provides a very small form factor with reduced size. The fiber optic connector may comprise a single-body housing having a front end and rear end in a longitudinal direction, two ferrules accommodated in the housing and protruding from the front end of the housing, a back housing positioned adjacent to the rear end of the housing, two springs positioned between the two ferrules and the back housing to urge the two ferrules to move forward, and a boot assembly connected to the rear end of the housing. The housing comprises a latch arm extending obliquely upwards, and the latch arm is in a depressed state when the fiber optic connector is mating with an adapter.

    Abstract: Fiber optic network systems are implemented, at least in part, using very small form factor (VSFF) interconnect components such as VSFF duplex connector; VSFF mechanical transfer ferrule (MT) connector; VSFF duplex uniboot connector; VSFF MT uniboot connector; VSFF duplex adapter; VSFF MT adapter; VSFF duplex pluggable transceiver; VSFF MT pluggable transceiver; VSFF patch cable assembly; VSFF trunk cable; and/or VSFF breakout cable. The VSFF fiber optic network systems can define fiber breakout cabling that connects large trunk cables to many peripheral network locations. The network systems can define branches and sub-branches from a trunk cable. The network systems can define cross-connect sub-networks between sets of transceivers or adapters. The network systems can define a trunk-to-transceiver cabling assembly for connecting a trunk cable to at least 32 transceiver ports.

    Abstract: An optoelectronic module and optoelectronic connector assemblies can be used for releasable connection of a laser source to the module from a location exterior to the module. The construction of the optoelectronic connector assemblies is such that both in connection and disconnection, the electrical contacts are broken before the optical contacts so that the laser may power down before the optical connection is broken. The optoelectronic connection assemblies have blind mating features. Some versions are free of any latching or mechanical interconnection of the optoelectronic connector assemblies to each other. A spring has a construction which permits it to be received onto a cable by lateral movement of the spring.
