An angular mounted optical connector frame. The frame comprises a housi ng open at a front and a rear to form a central passageway along an axis at an oblique angle with respect to the horizon. A pivot is attached to the housing outer portio n forward of the housing rear and has an axis of rotation parallel to the horizon but perpendicular to the axis of the central passageway. A stop having a first flat face is attached to the housing outer portion opposite the pivot and aft of the housing front. The frame may further comprise a latch formed by a base section attached to the housing outer portion opposite the pivot forward of the stop and two spring bars that extend in cantilever fashion around the stop and towards the housing rear. Each spring bar has a catch extending away from the stop mounted aft of the base section but forward of its first flat face. The frame may also comprise first and second housings, each having a base, side walls, and a front, joined at the bases thereof to form a single component. The bases and fronts of both the first and second housings are open to first and second cavities formed by the side walls of the first and second housings respectively. A first rid ge protrudes from the first housing and defines a mounting notch between itself and the first housing sidewalls. A second ridge protrudes from the second housing and defines a recession therein for receiving a fastener.
