ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an apparatus and method for coupling optical fibers having disparate connectors. First and second indexing bodies are moved relative to each other to bring into alignment selected receptors for accepting the disparate connectors. Receptors for several different connectors are available on at least one of the indexing bodies. The indexing bodies may be disk-shaped and attached for rotation about a common axis, with the receptors being arranged circumferentially. The apparatus may also includes a spring clip and magnet for mounting and storing on fiber optic bays and cabinets.
