A fiber optic system comprising:
- a multi-core fiber adapter having a multi-core single-fiber connector and a multi-fiber connector;
- a cover including a first end and a second end and defining a longitudinal axis, wherein the multi-core fiber connector is arranged at the the first end along the longitudinal axis and the multi-fiber connector is arranged at the second end along the longitudinal axis;
- a single multi-core optical fiber positioned within the cover along the longitudinal axis and at least partially received in the multi-core fiber connector;
- a multi-core divider positioned within the cover along the longitudinal axis configured to receive an end of the single multi-core optical fiber, wherein the multi-core divider is configured to divide the single multi-core optical fiber into a plurality of single-core optical fibers;
- and
- wherein the multi-core fiber connector is configured so as to arrange cores of the single multi-core optical fiber with respect to cores of a connected input cable.
