ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic connector assembly includes an outer housing having an interior cavity. A termination module is insertable into the cavity and includes a ferrule for terminating a distal end of at least one optical fiber stub. A base is attached to the ferrule and includes a channel for splicing a proximal end of the optical fiber stub to a fiber end of a fiber optic cable. A cover is positionable onto the base for holding the fiber stub and fiber end in the channel. A clamp is provided for holding the cover onto the base. A latch is provided between the clamp and the outer housing for holding the termination module in the cavity of the housing.
