    Abstract: An optical connection identification assembly (201, 202) includes first and second connectors for conveying optical signals within and away from the optical connection identification assembly, first and second optical filters (224A, 224B) configured for conveying optical signals to and from the respective first and second connectors (110, 150) and between each other, and first and second photodiodes (226 A, 226B). The first photodiode is configured for receiving optical signals from the first optical filter to confirm the optical connection identification assembly is receiving optical signals. The second photodiode is configured for receiving optical signals from the second optical filter to confirm the optical connection identification assembly is receiving optical signals. The first and the second connectors are on opposite sides of each of the first and the second optical filters and each of the first and the second photodiodes. Multiple optical connection identification assemblies are used in a system to prepare a connectivity map of a fiber optic system.

    Abstract: A cable device includes an elongated transmission member that defines a central axis, outer cover, and illumination element. The outer cover has an outer surface and a bore along its length. The illumination element extends in a direction parallel to the central axis and along a length of the transmission member. The illumination element has first and second exposed portions extending through separated openings of the outer surface of the outer cover. Each of first and second cross-sections of the respective first and second exposed portions define respective first and second illumination element central axes extending through the cross-sections in one or more directions transverse to the central axis of the transmission member. The illumination element is configured to convey a given light such that the given light that enters the first exposed portion of the illumination element exits the second exposed portion of the illumination element.

    Abstract: A connector assembly includes an adapter (2250), a housing device (2211), a ferrule assembly, and a sensor (2230). The housing device is received by the adapter and has a bore, a front end, and a rear end opposite the front end. A ferrule (2117B) of the ferrule assembly is within the bore of the housing device and has a mating end extending beyond the front end of the housing device. The sensor is mounted on the rear end of the housing device, the rear end of the ferrule assembly, or on the adapter confronting and spaced apart from the housing device or the ferrule assembly. The sensor is configured for detecting a force applied by the housing device or the ferrule assembly, respectively. An electrical characteristic of the sensor changes to indicate a predetermined force has been applied by the housing device or the ferrule assembly, respectively.
