    Abstract: A duplex fiber optic connector assembly suitable for polarity reversal includes first and second fiber optic connector subassemblies received by a primary housing that in turn is received by a latch housing. The primary housing is configured to be releasably engaged with the latch housing in either an upwardly-facing or downwardly-facing configuration (e.g., the latch housing is repositionable) for polarity reversal, and the primary housing may be removed from the latch housing by movement of the primary housing in a rearward direction. A manually actuatable engagement feature of the primary housing is configured to be received by a receiving feature of the latch housing. A manually actuatable latch mechanism of the latch housing is configured to permit releasable engagement with a fiber optic adapter housing separate from the duplex fiber optic connector assembly.

    Abstract: An adapter to mate fiber optic ferrules to respective fiber optic ferrules in a fiber optic connector housing includes a main body having ferrule-side openings and connector-side openings to receive the fiber optic connectors. The adapter includes columns that extend between a top side and a bottom side of the main body, a plurality of triggers attached to the adapter, each of the plurality of triggers having a pair of trigger legs, the trigger legs positioned inside respective columns on opposing sides. There is also a holder extension groove oriented longitudinally in each column and configured to receive a holder extension of a fiber optic ferrule holder and a pair of ferrule stop pedestals on each column on opposite sides of each holder extension groove configured to seat the fiber optic ferrule when the fiber optic ferrule holder is fully inserted into the adapter.

    Abstract: An optical fiber connector includes a connecting unit, an adapter unit, and an attenuation unit. The adapter unit includes an insertion seat connected removably to a main housing of the connecting unit, and two guide frame bodies located respectively at two opposite sides of the insertion seat in a transverse direction. The insertion seat has two insertion holes spaced apart in the transverse direction and extending in a front-rear direction. Each guide frame body extends in the front-rear direction away from the connecting unit. The attenuation unit includes two attenuation components, two rear ferrules, and two front ferrules. The attenuation components are arranged in the transverse direction and disposed within the main housing. The rear ferrules respectively extend rearwardly from rear ends of the attenuation components into the insertion holes. The front ferrules respectively extend forwardly from front ends of the attenuation components through and outwardly of the main housing.

    Abstract: A fiber optic cable assembly includes a fiber optic cable and a fiber optic connector. The cable includes a jacket having an elongated transverse cross-sectional profile that defines a major axis and a minor axis. Strength components of the cable are anchored to the connector. The fiber optic connector includes a multi-fiber ferrule defining a major axis that is generally perpendicular to the major axis of the jacket and a minor axis that is generally perpendicular to the minor axis of the jacket. Certain types of connectors include a connector body defining a side opening that extends along a length of the connector body; a multi-fiber ferrule configured for lateral insertion into the connector body through the side opening; and a cover that mounts over the side opening after the multi-fiber ferrule has been inserted into the connector body through the side opening.

    Abstract: A fiber optic connector comprising a main connector body having a plurality of removable sub-connectors retained therein is disclosed. Each sub-connector has a ferrule for retaining a pair of optical fibers, such as a transmit/receive pair for example. When the main connector body of the fiber optic connector is inserted into a receptacle, each of the optical fibers retained in each ferrule of the plurality of sub-connectors is optically connected to the fiber optic receptacle. In this manner, the fiber optic connector can connect and disconnect a plurality of optical fibers in the sub-connectors at the same time. Additionally, individual sub-connectors can be removed, rearranged and replaced, without disturbing the optical connections of the other sub-connectors. This arrangement thus eliminates the need for breakout cables or other bulky solutions to convert between different multi-fiber and duplex applications.
