Retrofit optical fiber connector module

Abstract

An optical fiber connector module for coupling to a ferrule terminated to at least one fiber in a ribbon cable is provided. The optical fiber connector module may include a first connector body member for coupling to the ferrule, the first connector body member including at least one alignment component coupling section, at least one biasing component coupling section, and a first through-channel for the ribbon cable. The optical fiber connector module may include a second connector body member coupled to the first connector body member, the second connector body member including at least one biasing component coupling section, a second through-channel for the ribbon cable, and an open side spanning the length of the second connector body member providing access to the second through-channel for the ribbon cable.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
