Abstract:
An optical fiber adapter includes an outer housing and an inner housing. A first alignment cylinder is formed in the outer housing for receiving a first optical fiber. The inner housing is integrally formed and disposed in the outer housing. The inner housing includes a plate, a pair of retaining clips, and a second alignment cylinder. The retaining clips extend from the front surface of the plate and the second alignment cylinder is disposed between the retaining clips and extends in a longitudinal direction from the front surface of the plate. The second alignment cylinder is formed with two slots extending through the second alignment cylinder from the outer surface to the inner surface. The two slots are oppositely disposed and extend to the rear surface of the plate in the longitudinal direction.

Claim (Index 19):
An optical fiber adapter, comprising:\n an outer housing having a first alignment cylinder formed therein for receiving a first optical fiber and an alignment sleeve; and an inner housing disposed in the outer housing, the inner housing comprising:\n a plate having a front surface, a back surface, a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface, the first lateral surface and second lateral surface being connected to the front surface and back surface; \n a first pair of retaining clips extending from the front surface of the plate; \n a second alignment cylinder extending from the front surface of the plate in a longitudinal direction for receiving a second optical fiber and the alignment sleeve, the second alignment cylinder having a first end and a second end opposing to the first end, the first end of the second alignment cylinder being coupled to the plate, wherein two slots are oppositely disposed and formed in the second alignment cylinder, the two slots passing through the second alignment cylinder and extending in the longitudinal direction to the back surface of the plate; \n two bridges including a first bridge formed on the first lateral surface and a second bridge formed on the second lateral surface, the two bridges respectively extending over the two slots; and \n two first pads coupled to the first lateral surface, wherein the first bridge is positioned between the two first pads.
