ABSTRACT:
An FC-type optical fiber connector adapter, such as an FC/PC optical fiber connector adapter, is provided with a circumferential flange and at least one substantially radially extending projection for mounting in a panel designed to accommodate biconic optical fiber connector adapters. In one embodiment, the FC-type optical fiber connector adapter contains a circumferential groove with an O-ring to facilitate a tight frictional connection.
