Abstract:
Fiber optic connectors and connectorized fiber optic cables include connector housings having locking portions defined on the connector housing that allow the connector housing to be selectively coupled to a corresponding push-button securing member of a multiport assembly. Methods for selectively connecting a fiber optic connector to, and disconnecting the fiber optic connector from the multiport assemblies allow for connector housings to be forcibly and nondestructively removed from the multiport assembly.

Claim (Index 24):
A method for selectively connecting a fiber optic connector to a multiport assembly, the method comprising:\n inserting a connector housing of a fiber optic connector into a connector port of a multiport assembly, the connector housing comprising a longitudinal axis extending through the connector housing; engaging a ramp of a push-button securing member of the multiport assembly with the connector housing, moving the push-button securing member away from a connector insertion path defined by the multiport assembly; moving at least a portion of the connector housing through a bore of the push-button securing member of the multiport assembly; moving at least a portion of the push-button securing member into a locking portion recess of the connector housing; and engaging a connector engagement face of the push-button securing member that is oriented transverse to the connector insertion path of the multiport assembly, with a port engagement face of the connector housing that is oriented transverse to the longitudinal axis of the connector housing to selectively couple the connector housing to the multiport assembly.
