REDUCED-PROFILE DATA TRANSMISSION ELEMENT CONNECTORS, ADAPTERS, AND CONNECTION ASSEMBLIES THEREOF |
摘要 |
Reduced-profile connection components are described. The reduced-profile connection components are configured to connect various data transmission elements, including cables, network devices, and computing devices. A non-limiting example of a connection component includes a fiber optic connection component, including connectors, adapters, and assemblies formed therefrom. In some embodiments, the connection components may include mechanical transfer (MT) and multi-fiber push-on/pull-off (MPO) connection components, such as MT ferrules and MPO adapters. The reduced-profile connection components configured according to some embodiments have a smaller profile and/or require less parts to achieve a connection compared to conventional connection components. In some embodiments, the reduced-profile connection components may be used with conventional connection components. For example a reduced-profile connector may use a conventional MT ferrule to establish a connection within a conventional MPO adapter. |

1. A reduced-profile connection assembly, comprising:
an adapter; a ferrule having a connection side; and a reduced-profile clip fixedly arranged within the adapter, the reduced-profile clip having hooks configured to engage a portion of the ferrule opposite the connection side to prevent movement of the ferrule within the adapter. |
