Abstract: A fiber optic cassette may include a cassette body defining a front end, a rear end, and an enclosed interior. Multiple identical apertures are included on the front end of the cassette body, where each aperture is configured to accept a fiber optic adapter. The cassette may further include an optical component located in an enclosed interior of the cassette body and configured to process a signal received from a fiber optic connector coupled to one of the fiber optic adapters, a crimp tube mounted to the front end of the cassette body, and at least one fiber optic cable attached to the crimp tube, extending from the cassette and configured to carry the signal processed by the optical component. The fiber optic cable may include a jacket, a strength member crimped to the crimp tube, and optical fibers extending past the crimp tube into the interior of the cassette body, wherein the mounting structure for mounting the crimp tube to the cassette body is receivable within one of the identical apertures.

Abstract: An adapter structure for fixing a portion of a telecommunications cable to a telecommunications device and directing fibers within the cable into the device includes a crimp body and an outer mounting body. The crimp body defines a first side and a second side separated by a center portion and also includes two flexible legs extending from the first side and an integral crimp portion extending from the second side that has outer surface texturing. The outer mounting body includes a through-hole, where the two flexible legs of the crimp body fit into one end of the through-hole. It also includes tabs on opposing sides of the outer mounting body for slidable insertion into slots defined by the telecommunications device to prevent movement of the outer mounting body in a front to back direction, relative to the device.
