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 28):
A fiber optic device for installation at an installation location, 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 opposite first and second ends, the fiber optic cables extending between the second ends of the fiber optic connectors and the splitter housing; and a connector holder having a front and a rear, the connector holder also including sides that extend between the front and the rear of the connector holder, the connector holder being movable relative to the splitter housing prior to installation, the fiber optic connectors being loaded for storage into the front of the connector holder with the second ends of the fiber optic connectors projecting outwardly from the front of the connector holder and with all the fiber optic cables extending from the second ends of the fiber optic connectors to the splitter housing without passing through the connector holder, the fiber optic connectors being loaded into the connector holder before the connector holder is installed at the installation location, wherein the fiber optic connectors are loaded in the connector holder by plugging the first ends of the fiber optic connectors axially into the connector holder through the front of the connector holder, wherein the fiber optic connectors are removable from the connector holder by axially withdrawing the fiber optic connectors from the connector holder out the front of the connector holder, and wherein the first ends of the fiber optic connectors are protected by closed-ended openings in the connector holder or by dust caps secured to the fiber optic connectors.
