A fiber optic assembly is provided including a housing having an exterior and an internal volume, a cable port configured for a plurality of fiber optic cables to pass from the exterior to the internal volume of the housing, and a cable strain relief. The cable strain relief includes a base and a restraint projection extending from the base. The restraint projection includes opposing first second faces, a leading edge facing the internal volume, and a trailing edge facing the exterior. The restraint projection is configured to receive the plurality of fiber optic cables banded at a first location disposed at the leading edge and a second location disposed at the trailing edge, such that a portion of the plurality of fiber optic cables is disposed at the first and second faces, and the restraint projection resists lateral movement of the plurality of fiber optic cables relative to the base.
