  • Patent number: 11402596
    Abstract: A terminal system assembly includes a base plate, a spool, an adapter module for securing a connection between a fiber of an input fiber cable and a fiber of an output fiber cable, and a cable management plate coupled with the spool. The spool is rotatably mounted to the base plate and is configured to receive the input fiber cable. The adapter module is configured to be coupled with the cable management plate. The spool containing the fiber input cable is allowed to freely rotate until the adapter module is coupled with the cable management plate. The adapter module includes an anti-rotation portion that is configured to cooperate with a portion of the base plate to prevent rotation of the spool and the adapter module when the adapter module is coupled with the spool.

  • Patent number: 9753240
    Abstract: A fiber optic module mounting assembly can include a surface defining an opening and a module holder. The module holder includes a body defining a channel. The body has a cross-sectional shape closely corresponding to a cross-sectional shape of the opening defined by the surface. The module holder creates a snap or friction fit with the surface when the module holder is received within the opening of the surface, thereby coupling the module holder to the surface. The mounting assembly also includes a module comprising a housing having a cross-sectional shape closely corresponding to a cross-sectional shape of the channel of the module holder, and an optical component within the housing. The module is configured to be received within the channel defined by the body of the module holder.
