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 1):
A multiport assembly comprising:\n a shell defining a cavity positioned within the shell; a plurality of optical adapters positioned within the cavity of the shell, the optical adapters structurally configured to receive, align, and optically couple dissimilar optical connectors; a plurality of optical connection ports comprising respective connection port passageways permitting external optical connectors to access the plurality of optical adapters positioned within the cavity of the shell, the connection port passageways comprising respective connector insertion paths; and a plurality of push-button securing members associated with respective ones of the connection port passageways, wherein\n each push-button securing member is biased in an engaged position, in which a locking portion of the push-button securing member is positioned within a corresponding connector insertion path, and is selectively positionable into and out of a disengaged position, in which the locking portion of the push-button securing member is positioned outside the corresponding connector insertion path, and \n the locking portion of each push-button securing member is configured to permit forcible nondestructive disengagement of an external optical connector from the locking portion of the push-button securing member upon application of a force on the external optical connector in a direction along an axis extending along the corresponding connector insertion path.
