  • Publication number: 20230273372
    Abstract: Field-configurable optical devices and methods are disclosed. In one example, a field-configurable optical device includes a housing defining an enclosure, an input port located at the housing, a pass-through port located at the housing, a plurality of output ports located at the housing, a splitter disposed within the enclosure, a plurality of couplers within the enclosure, each coupler including an input, a first output, and a second output. Each coupler has a power splitting ratio between the first output and the second output that is different from the other couplers. An input port fiber optic jumper assembly within the enclosure. A pass-through port fiber optic jumper assembly is within the enclosure. Moving the input port fiber optic jumper assembly and the pass-through port fiber optic jumper assembly from a first coupler to a second coupler of the plurality of couplers changes the power splitting ratio of the field-configurable optical device.

  • Publication number: 20210318499
    Abstract: Multiport assemblies comprising one or more optical ports for receiving an external optical fiber connector for making an optical connection along with useful mounting features for securing the multiport assembly are disclosed. The multiport assembly comprises a mounting member having an aperture and a standoff that is coupled to a shell. The standoff extends outward from a lower surface of the shell to allow easy mounting to irregular surfaces. In another embodiment, the multiport assembly may comprise a second mounting member with an aperture and standoff that is received in a rear shell aperture to inhibit damage to the multiport assembly if a fastener is over-tightened during mounting. In further embodiments, the multiport assembly may comprise a dust plug having a locking feature and a keying port that is received in an optical port for inhibiting dirt, dust or debris from entering when the optical port is not in use.
