Integrated fiber optic cable fan-out connector

A fan-out assembly for connecting fiber optic cables of a multi-fiber optical cable to a plurality of fiber optic terminals, the assembly comprising:

• a housing defining an interior cavity therein and having a first body portion and a second body portion spaced from the first body portion;
• a plurality of pigtail cable segments having a first end disposed within the housing and a free end disposed away from the housing;
• at least one optical fiber extending through each pigtail cable segment, each optical fiber comprising a first end disposed within the interior cavity and a second end disposed at the free end of the pigtail cable segment;
• a first optical fiber connector collectively terminating the first ends of a plurality of the optical fibers;
• at least one second optical fiber connector mounted to the free end of each pigtail cable segment and terminating the second end of the at least one optical fiber of the pigtail cable segment, the second optical fiber connectors being configured to mate with the fiber optic terminals;
• and
• the housing comprising an optical fiber adapter located at the second body portion of the housing, the optical fiber adapter having a first end open to the interior cavity for receiving the first optical fiber connector therein, and a second end exposed externally of the interior cavity for receiving a connector of a multi-fiber optical cable to mate the optical fibers of the multi-fiber optical cable with the first ends of the optical fibers of the pigtail cable segments;
• wherein when the first optical fiber connector is received in the first open end of the adapter, each pigtail cable segment extends continuously from the first optical fiber connector adjacent the second body portion of the housing, through the interior cavity of the housing, and out the first body portion of the housing to the respective free end.
