Abstract: A fiber optic network device comprising an input port adapted to receive a multi-fiber cable having active optical fibers designated in a consecutive sequence is disclosed. A first plurality and a second plurality of optical fibers are disposed within the fiber optic network device. The first plurality of optical fibers aligns to a first section of the consecutive sequence and a second plurality of optical fibers aligns to a second section of the consecutive sequence. A plurality of drop ports in the fiber optic network device are adapted to optically couple ones of the first plurality of optical fibers to at least one drop cable. A pass-through port is adapted to optically couple the second plurality of optical fibers to a second fiber optic network device through a multi-fiber adapter in a central alignment at the pass-through port.

Abstract: An adapter plate assembly includes an adapter for mating two connectors and an adapter plate. The adapter includes a first end and a second end and a passage therethrough. The adapter further includes an adapter footprint and an adapter flange. The first end has an external threaded portion and the second end has an external threaded portion. The adapter is adapted to receive a ruggedized connector in the first and a multi-fiber connector in the second end. The adapter plate includes an aperture for receiving at least a portion of the adapter, a footprint receiving portion for receiving at least a portion of the adapter footprint, a flange receiving portion for receiving the adapter flange, and an attachment feature. A method of assembling the adapter plate and mounting the adapter plate to a non-standard wall is described.
