Abstract: A method for positioning an optical fiber having an end portion within an alignment groove of an alignment device includes orienting the optical fiber in the alignment groove of the alignment device; causing the optical fiber to elastically flex; using an interference point to assist in forming a curved profile of the flexed fiber, and using inherent elasticity of the flexed optical fiber to assist in retaining the end portion of the optical fiber in contact with the alignment groove. A connection system includes a connector, alignment device, and adapter, with an interference point on at least one of the connector, alignment device, or adapter.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an optical fiber alignment device that has an alignment housing that includes first and second ends. The alignment housing defines a fiber insertion axis that extends through the alignment housing between the first and second ends. The alignment housing includes a fiber alignment region at an intermediate location between the first and second ends. First and second fiber alignment rods are positioned within the alignment housing. The first and second fiber alignment rods cooperate to define a fiber alignment groove that extends along the fiber insertion axis. The first and second fiber alignment rods each having rounded ends positioned at the first and second ends of the alignment housing.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a bare fiber connection system that includes first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors that have a low profile and are mounted in a multi-fiber adapter. The multi-fiber fiber optic connectors are bare fiber connectors that each include a connector body and a plurality of optical fibers extending through the connector body. The bare fiber connection system includes a latching arrangement for securing the first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors respectively in first and second adapter ports. One aspect of the present disclosure relates to the first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors and the multi-fiber adapter lacking integrated structures for releasing the first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors from the first and second adapter ports. Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a release key that is separate from the first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors and the multi-fiber adapter for releasing the first and second multi-fiber fiber optic connectors from the first and second adapter ports of the multi-fiber adapter.

Abstract: A fiber optic adapter includes an adapter body defining a port leading to an alignment structure. The optical adapter also defines a platform disposed at the first port. The platform is recessed inwardly from an outer periphery of the adapter body. The platform includes latching members having catch surfaces. A fiber optic connector includes a connector plug body holding an optical fiber. The connector also includes a latching arm having a latching end that defines two rearwardly facing catch surfaces separated by a central webbing, which extends along a length of the latching arm. The rearwardly facing catch surfaces align with the catch surfaces of the latching members when the fiber optic connector is received at the fiber optic adapter.
