A pre-terminated cable assembly includes: a fiber optic cable comprising a plurality of optical fibers surrounded by a polymeric jacket; the jacket including a transition region, wherein the plurality of optical fibers is broken out into fiber subunits on one side of the transition region; a sleeve fixed to the transition region; and a circumferentially compressing member mounted on the transition region of the jacket adjacent the fixing sleeve. In this configuration, the cable assembly can have sufficient strain relief and protection for the optical fibers as the cable is manipulated into place during installation.

A fan-out unit for a data communication system includes: a plurality of optical fibers; and a faceplate with a plurality of ports arranged in at least one row, each of the ports being optically interconnected with a respective one of the optical fibers and configured to received a mating optical fiber. The faceplate includes a first visual indicia associated with the ports that indicates an arrangement in which mating optical fibers are to be inserted into the ports, the first visual indicia being easily readable when the faceplate is in either a first horizontal orientation or a first vertical orientation, but not being easily readable when the faceplate is in a second horizontal orientation that is inverted from the first horizontal orientation or a second vertical orientation that is inverted from the first vertical orientation.

A removable cable gland includes a two-piece fitting which may be laterally assembled over a cable, as opposed to a cable being fed through an opening in the fitting. A two-piece compression nut may also be laterally assembled over the cable. The two pieces of the compression nut are slid together along a longitudinal direction of the cable by a tongue and groove arrangement. The two pieces of the fitting are plugged together in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cable. Once first threads of the fitting are engaged to second threads of the compression nut, the two-piece fitting is locked together by the surrounding compression nut. Simultaneously, the two-piece compression nut is locked together, such that the tongue may not slide longitudinally relative to the groove, due to the first and second thread engagement.

A genderless fiber optic connection system includes an MPO cable or cord having at least one genderless MPO connector disposed at one end. The genderless MPO connector includes a housing and a first genderless MPO ferrule attached therein. A mating, front face of the MPO ferrule includes an alignment pin extending therefrom and an alignment hole formed into the front face. Fiber ends are located in one or more rows between the alignment pin and the alignment hole. The connection system may also include a genderless MPO port having a complementary alignment pin, alignment hole, and fiber ends for mating with the genderless MPO connector.

A fiber management device includes a first member having a floor, a first end, a second end and first and second sides, the first end including at least one holder for securing at least one optical fiber adapter to the first member, the second end including a frame holding a plurality of fiber optic connectors, the first side and second sides including first and second fiber guide structures. A first optical fiber connector is in the at least one holder, and includes a first plurality of optical fibers forming a first loop on the floor that contacts the first fiber guide structure and the second fiber guide structure. A second member includes a housing releasably connected to the first member and defining with the first member an enclosure for the first loop.

A fiber optic ribbon cable includes: a plurality of substantially parallel optical fibers formed into a ribbon, the ribbon extending in a longitudinal direction and having first and second ends; and a termination assembly attached at each of the first and second ends of the ribbon. Each of the termination assemblies includes a body and a ferrule, the body having a key on an upper surface thereof. The ferrule has a polished contact surface that exposes ends of the optical fibers; the contact surface forms an oblique angle relative to a plane normal to axes defined by the fibers. The termination assemblies at the first and second ends of the ribbon either both face slightly upwardly or both face slightly downwardly.

A communications interconnection system includes: a communications rack having a pair of upright members; a patch panel mounted to the upright members, the patch panel having mounting locations for telecommunications connectors; and a cable management system mounted to the rack. The cable management system comprises a cable mounting member having a cable securing portion and a pair of arms attached to the cable securing portion, the arms being substantially parallel to each other and slidably mounted relative to the panel to enable adjustment of the distance between the cable securing portion and the communications rack. This configuration can enable the cable management system to be used with communications racks of different sizes and designs.
