Fiber optic cable assembly

A fiber optic cable assembly comprising:

• a connector having a mating end and a cable end;
• a fiber optic cable terminated to the cable end of the connector;
• and
• a cable director coupled to the fiber optic cable rearward of the connector, the cable director comprising a flexible support sleeve and a clip extending from the support sleeve, the support sleeve including a raceway that receives the fiber optic cable, the support sleeve being movable between a loading position and a holding position, the raceway being substantially linear in the loading position, the raceway being bent at an angle in the holding position, the clip being movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position, the clip retaining the support sleeve in the holding position when in the engaged position.

A cable director for a fiber optic cable comprising:

• a flexible support sleeve including a raceway configured to receive the fiber optic cable, the support sleeve having a first end segment and a second end segment, the support sleeve having a first attachment point proximate to the first end segment and a second attachment point proximate to the second end segment;
• and
• a clip extending from the support sleeve, the clip holding the support sleeve in a bent shape when the clip is attached to both the first attachment point and the second attachment point,
• wherein the support sleeve is configured to be straightened to a loading position in which the raceway is substantially linear when the clip is removed from at least one of the first or second attachment points.
