Abstract:
A fiber optic adapter ( 736/836 ) includes a body configured to mate a first fiber optic connector ( 12 ) with a second fiber optic connector ( 50 ), the first and second fiber optic connectors ( 12,50 ) including latches ( 60 ) for mating with catches ( 771 ) of the adapter ( 736/836 ) for releasably engaging the first and second connectors ( 12,50 ) with the fiber optic adapter ( 736/836 ), wherein the latches ( 60 ) are configured to be unlatched from the catches ( 771 ) by direct contact with the latches ( 60 ). The adapter ( 736/836 ) includes a release mechanism ( 702/802 ) for allowing a user to release the latch ( 60 ) of at least one of the first and second fiber optic connectors ( 12,50 ) from the adapter ( 736/836 ) without directly contacting the latch ( 60 ) of the at least one of the first and second fiber optic connectors ( 12,50 ).

Claim (Index 12):
A telecommunications system comprising:\n a fixture defining a pocket for receiving a fiber optic adapter, the pocket defining an adapter insertion first end and an opposite second end; the fiber optic adapter inserted into the pocket from the first end, the fiber optic adapter including a catch; a fiber optic connector inserted into the pocket from the second end, the fiber optic connector including a latch configured to mate with the catch for latching the connector with the adapter, wherein the latch is configured to be unlatched from the catch by direct contact with the latch; and a release mechanism provided on the fiber optic adapter or on the fixture for allowing a user to release the latch of the connector from the catch of the adapter without directly contacting the latch of the connector, the release mechanism operable by the user from adjacent the adapter insertion first end of the pocket.
