Tiltable gang fiber adaptor assembly

A gang adaptor assembly comprising:

• a holder having a longitudinal axis, a first end, a second end opposite the first end;
• a first connector disposed at the first end, the first connector comprising:
• a first stem extending from the first end along the longitudinal axis, and
• a first head disposed on a distal end of the stem;
• a second connector disposed at the second end, the second connector comprising:
• a second stem extending from the second end along the longitudinal axis, and
• a second head disposed on a distal end of the stem;
• a plurality of adaptors positioned adjacent to one another along a longitudinal axis;
• and
• a latch actuator disposed on at least one of first and second ends, the latch mechanism having a cam surface for actuating a latch mechanism on the cassette.

An optical fiber cassette comprising:

• a framework having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the framework comprising:
• a first stem aperture disposed within the first side, and
• a second stem aperture disposed within the second side opposite and axially-aligned with the first stem;
• and
• a gang adaptor assembly comprising:
• a first end,
• a second end opposite the first end,
• a plurality of adaptors positioned adjacent to one another along a longitudinal axis between first and second ends,
• a first connector disposed at the first end, the first connector comprising a first stem extending from the first end and received with the first stem aperture,
• a second connector disposed at the second end, the second connector comprising a second stem extending from the second end and received with the second stem aperture, and
• a latch actuator disposed on at least one of first and second ends, the latch mechanism having a cam surface for actuating a latch mechanism on the cassette;
• wherein first and second connectors tiltably connect the plurality of adaptors to the framework, permitting the plurality of adaptors to tilt relative to the framework.
