Abstract:
A factory processed and assembled optical fiber arrangement is configured to pass through tight, tortuous spaces when routed to a demarcation point. A connector housing attaches to the optical fiber arrangement at the demarcation point (or after leaving the tight, tortuous spaces) to form a connectorized end of the optical fiber. A fiber tip is protected before leaving the factory until connection is desired.

Claim (Index 26):
An assembled fiber optic connector comprising:\n a fiber optic arrangement including an optical fiber having a prepared fiber tip held by an optical ferrule arrangement; a proximal housing disposed over the optical fiber, the proximal housing defining an interior spring stop and an exterior catch member; a spring disposed over the optical fiber, the spring having a first end engaging a spring stop defined by the optical ferrule arrangement and a second end engaging the spring stop defined by the proximal housing; and a distal housing having an open rear through which the fiber optic arrangement, spring, and proximal housing can be inserted, the distal housing defining an aperture configured to latchably receive the exterior catch member of the proximal housing.
