Abstract: An in-line dust shutter formed as part an adapter. A hinged dust shutter assembly is secured to an adapter wall. A shutter plate covers an opening formed at either end of the adapter to prevent debris from entering the adapter and distorting the light signal between opposing fiber optic connectors. The shutter plate extends at angle alpha from a rotational axis. The shutter plate is biased closed by a bias spring place about a pin of the rotational axis.

Abstract: A multiple fiber push-on (MPO) optical connector is provided having a ferrule configured to house multiple optical fibers and including a stepped portion extending from at least one pair of opposing exterior surfaces of the ferrule. A one-piece housing-backpost is provided having a distal end in a connection direction and a proximal end in a cable direction. The one-piece housing-backpost is configured to receive a ferrule spring and the ferrule from the distal end. The housing-backpost includes at least one resiliently-deformable ferrule-retaining protrusion extending from a sidewall to engage the corresponding stepped portion of the ferrule. The resiliently-deformable ferrule-retaining protrusion is configured to deform towards the housing-backpost interior sidewall as the ferrule is inserted from the distal end and to extend outward against the stepped portion of the ferrule when the ferrule is seated in the housing-backpost to maintain the ferrule in the housing-backpost.

Abstract: A bifurcated housing having opposing body portions that when mated stack one or more adapters. The stacked adapters may be different adapter types. A panel clip secures the bifurcated housing within a panel. The adapter types may be stacked vertical or horizontal depending on the panel configuration or network layout. The body portions form an outer housing with opposing sidewalls perpendicular to the outer housing. The sidewalls have a recess or securing clip that when the two body portions are mated, the one or more adapters stacked are secured therein.

Abstract: A managed fiber optic connector assembly formed with an optical fiber management enclosure. The optical fiber management enclosure is formed with a back body as one-piece to form an integrated fiber optic management enclosure, or fiber optic management enclosure is inserted into the back body form a two-piece enclosure. The fiber management enclosure has a plural of channels, for example, an upper channel and a lower channel that retain, separate and guide a plural of optical fibers that are accepted through a port at a distal end of the managed fiber optic connector assembly.

Abstract: An adapter assembly with an adapter housing and a cross-bar. The cross-bar when depressed release one or more fiber optic connectors secured with the one or more adapter ports. The cross-bar is replaced with a return spring that secures a release tab with ribs on one side of the release tab body. The number of ribs determines the number of connectors that can be released together when the user pulls on the release tab shaft.

Abstract: An optical connector holding one or more LC-type optical ferrules is provided. The optical connector includes an outer housing, pin keep, and two pins. One pin acts as a push/pull mechanism to release the connector from the adapter. The pin keep has two side clips with one of two side clips having an alignment key on a top surface. The alignment key engages a corresponding surface in the adapter housing to aid in polarity setting of the connector with the adapter. The adapter has a panel mounting clip that contains one or more latches that engage and retain the connector in the adapter housing. The panel clips and surfaces of the connector are constructed to reduce the overall size of the connector and adapter. The adapter has a plural of internal ribs forming one or more channels.

Abstract: Connector assemblies are described herein. For example, a connector assembly including: a housing configured to accept a first ferrule and a second ferrule. The connector assembly may also have a push/pull clip that is configure to depress a protrusion that rotates down a connector device to remove the connector assembly from an adapter. The push/pull clip is integrated with a cable boot assembly that allows a user to apply a distal force to remove or insert the connector assembly into the adapter housing. The push/pull clip is configured for use to release a MPO and LC connector type from an adapter.

Abstract: An optical connector assembly having a connector housing with a first and second end. First end accepts a ferrule assembly, and second end accepts a retention assembly. There is a longitudinal bore from a distal to proximal end of connector. Bore accepts a POF optical fiber therein at distal end and fiber is inserted proximally until fiber bottoms-out at proximal end of ferrule. Retention body accepts one or more retention caps, or retention body contains at least one retention wing set to secure fiber to connector.
