    Abstract: A fiber optic connector including a connector body and a cable, the cable including optical fibers and a non-circular jacket. The fiber optic connector additionally including a resilient jacket, the resilient jacket is rotatable relative to the non-circular jacket. The resilient jacket is enabled to rotate by an insert which includes an outer profile which engages with an inner profile of the resilient jacket. The insert includes an inner profile which prevents relative rotation between the insert and the non-circular jacket.

    Abstract: A fiber optic adapter includes an adapter body defining a port leading to an alignment structure. The optical adapter also defines a platform disposed at the first port. The platform is recessed inwardly from an outer periphery of the adapter body. The platform includes latching members having catch surfaces. A fiber optic connector includes a connector plug body holding an optical fiber. The connector also includes a latching arm having a latching end that defines two rearwardly facing catch surfaces separated by a central webbing, which extends along a length of the latching arm. The rearwardly facing catch surfaces align with the catch surfaces of the latching members when the fiber optic connector is received at the fiber optic adapter.
