摘要:
A connector (10) includes two connector portions (12) and a boot (14). Each connector portion (12) includes a ferrule (78) and a latch (18). The latch (18) includes a distal end (24) and a proximal end (22). The latch (18) is pivotable about an intermediate connection portion (26). The boot (14) is mounted to the connector portions (12). The boot (14) moves longitudinally relative to the connector portions (12). The boot (14) causes the distal ends (24) of the latch (18) to pivot toward the ferrule (78) of each connector portion (12) as the boot (14) is moved away from the connector portions (12). Front housings (32) of the connector portions (12) can each be rotated about the longitudinal axis of the ferrule (78) without rotating the ferrule (78) or the boot (14), to change the polarity of the two connector portions (12). The spacing between the two ferrules (78) is adjustable. A holder (96) holds the connector portions (12). The holder (96) includes side slots (98). The connector portions (12) mounted to the holder (96) by moving laterally to the side slots (98). The holder (96) defines an area for receipt of a fiber optic cable (150) when the ferrule (78) is pushed in a direction toward the boot (14).
摘要:
A patch cord including a connector attached to an end of an electrical cable. The connector includes a boot member that slides over a portion of a wire manager to actuate a retention arrangement of the connector. Certain types of retention arrangements are actuated by deflecting flexible tabs of the wire manager inwardly to bite into at least an outer jacket of the electrical cable.

A patch cord including a connector attached to an end of an electrical cable. The connector includes a single-piece attachment member having a management section, a boot, and collar including a retention arrangement. Certain types of retention arrangements include one or more teeth that protrude inwardly from the collar to bite into at least an outer jacket of the electrical cable.
摘要:
An upgradeable patch panel assembly and associated method of upgrading a patch panel assembly. The upgradeable patch panel assembly including a panel base having an aperture sized to receive a scanner interface cable. The method including removing a first cover from the panel base, inserting a scanner interface cable through the existing aperture in the panel base, and attached an upgraded cover to the panel base. Upgrading the patch panel assembly is completed while the assembly remains mounted to a frame and without disconnecting rear cable connections. The upgraded patch panel assembly provides jack-occupancy monitoring capabilities.
