Abstract

Duplex fiber optic connectors and fiber optic cable assemblies (110) suitable for polarity reversal along with methods of polarity reversal are disclosed. The duplex fiber optic connector assemblies and fiber optic cable assemblies (110) allow rotation of individual fiber optic connectors (10A, 10B) within the housing assembly (30) for polarity reversal. In one embodiment, the duplex fiber optic cable assembly (110) may use a single boot (60) and a single fiber optic cable, thereby reducing the backside footprint of the cable assembly for improved access and / or airflow. In another embodiment, the housing (30) of the duplex assembly (110) has integral detents (45) to limit rotation, and may further include a removable trigger mechanism (20) and / or a rotatable boot (60) to facilitate polarity reversal.

Description

[0001] Cross reference to related patent applications [0002] This application requests the benefit of U.S. Application No. 12 / 394,524 filed on February 27, 2009, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. Technical field [0003] The present disclosure generally relates to optical fiber assemblies used in telecommunication systems, and more particularly to duplex optical fiber connector assemblies and optical fiber cable assemblies that allow polarity reversal, and a polarity reversal method. Background technique [0004] Continuously improve the capacity of optical fiber, optical cable and optical fiber hardware through research and innovation to meet the needs of more and more users. This creates density issues in even the most expansive data centers. As data centers become denser and denser, one area of ​​concern is cabling and airflow. Using jumper cables, each piece of equipment in the data center is interconnected with other equipment or different com...
