Adapter assembly for fiber optic connectors

摘要

An adapter assembly (10) is provided for holding two individual fiber optic connectors (12) in generally parallel side-by-side alignment. The assembly includes a body (32) having a pair of holding portions (34) adapted for holding the fiber optic connectors (12) in a substantially side-by-side relationship. A separate spring (46,50) is mounted on the body (32) and is adapted for cooperating with the body to bias the fiber optic connectors (12) to a substantially parallel relationship.
