Abstract:
A housing including a plurality of openings for receiving fiber optic connectors and protecting the polished end face of the connectors from damage while the connectors are stored within a telecommunications connection cabinet. A module with a plurality of optical fiber cables connected to a first optical fiber cable and terminated by a fiber optic connector. Each of the connectors are inserted within openings in a connector holder for storage and protection until the cables need to be connected to a customer equipment cable.

Claim (Index 17):
A fiber optic device for installation at an installation site, the fiber optic device comprising:\n a splitter device including a splitter housing containing an optical splitter, the splitter device also including a plurality of fiber optic cables that extend outwardly from the splitter housing, the fiber optic cables including optical fibers optically connected to the optical splitter, the fiber optic cables having first ends at the splitter housing and second ends terminated by fiber optic connectors, the fiber optic connectors having first and second opposite ends, the optical fibers having end faces at the first ends of the fiber optic connectors, the fiber optic cables extending between the second ends of the fiber optic connectors and the splitter housing, and the fiber optic connectors defining connector axes that extend between the first and second ends of the fiber optic connectors; and a connector holder having a front and a rear, the connector holder being tethered to the splitter housing by the fiber optic cables prior to the fiber optic device being installed, the connector holder being moveable relative to the splitter housing, the connector holder defining a plurality of ports having open ends at least at the front of the connector holder, the fiber optic connectors being retained within the ports with the connector axes extending in a front-to-rear orientation relative to the connector holder and the second ends of the fiber optic connectors projecting outwardly from the front of the connector holder, the fiber optic connectors being removable from the connector holder by withdrawing the fiber optic connectors from the ports along their connector axes out the front of the connector holder, and wherein when the fiber optic connectors have been removed from the connector holder the fiber optic cables corresponding to the removed fiber optic connectors are completely disengaged from the connector holder.
