Abstract
A fiber optic adaptor assembly, to be inserted into a metal faceplate of a fiber distribution hub, includes a main body, a connector holder and a conductive ring member. The connector holder is removably inserted into an installation hole of the main body. The conductive ring member is removably sleeved around an outer periphery of the main body. The conductive ring member electrically contacts and cooperates with the metal faceplate to provide a shielding effect against electromagnetic interferences when the main body is inserted into the faceplate.
Claims16
A fiber optic adaptor assembly to be inserted into a metal faceplate of a fiber distribution hub, comprising:
- a main body formed with at least one installation hole;
- at least one connector holder removably inserted into said at least one installation hole;
- and
- a conductive ring member made from an electrically conductive material and removably sleeved around an outer periphery of said main body, wherein said conductive ring member electrically contacts and cooperates with the metal faceplate to provide a shielding effect against electromagnetic interferences when said main body is inserted into the faceplate;
- wherein said main body including an inner surface facing said at least one installation hole, and at least one sliding track member that is formed on said inner surface in communication with said at least one installation hole and that extends in an insertion direction of said at least one connector holder, said at least one connector holder having an insertion portion extending into said at least one installation hole and slidably engaging said at least one sliding track member, and a frame-shaped head portion connected to one end of said insertion portion outwardly of said at least one installation hole.
A fiber optic adaptor assembly to be inserted into a metal faceplate of a fiber distribution hub, comprising:
- a main body formed with at least one installation hole and configured to be inserted into the metal faceplate;
- and
- at least one connector holder removably inserted into said at least one installation hole and configured to hold a fiber optic connector;
- wherein said at least one connector holder includes an insertion portion inserted into said at least one installation hole, a frame-shaped head portion connected to said insertion portion outwardly of said at least one installation hole, and two alignment sleeves respectively connected to two opposite sides of said insertion portion inside said at least one installation hole, said frame-shaped head portion having two connector-receiving openings respectively aligned with said alignment sleeves, and a separation plate disposed between said connector-receiving openings, said insertion portion having an outer end connected to said separation plate of said frame-shaped head portion.
A fiber optic adaptor assembly to be inserted into a metal faceplate of a fiber distribution hub, comprising:
