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.
