Fiber optic adapter block
A fiber optic adapter block is disclosed. The fiber optic adapter block includes at least three fiber optic adapters provided in a stacked arrangement extending widthwise in a longitudinal direction, wherein every other adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters is staggered in a front to back direction with respect to an adjacent adapter such that front ends of the every other adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters are aligned at a first depth and a front end of the adjacent adapter is at a second depth that is different than the first depth.
1. A fiber optic adapter block comprising:
at least three fiber optic adapters provided in a stacked arrangement extending widthwise in a longitudinal direction, wherein every other adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters is staggered in a front to back direction with respect to an adjacent adapter such that front ends of the every other adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters are aligned at a first depth and a front end of the adjacent adapter is at a second depth that is different than the first depth, wherein the at least three adapters of the fiber optic adapter block are integrally formed with a unitary one-piece body of the fiber optic adapter block.
2. A fiber optic block according to claim 1 , wherein rear ends of the every other adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters are aligned at a third depth and a rear end of the adjacent adapter is at a fourth depth that is different than the third depth.
3. A fiber optic block according to claim 1 , wherein the at least three fiber optic adapters are configured for interconnecting LC-type fiber optic connectors.
4. A fiber optic block according to claim 3 , wherein each fiber optic adapter of the at least three fiber optic adapters defines a duplex LC-type fiber optic adapter for providing a total of at least six connections.
5. A fiber optic block according to claim 4 , wherein the at least three fiber optic adapters includes at least six duplex LC-type fiber optic adapters for providing a total of at least twelve connections.
6. A fiber optic block according to claim 1 , wherein the at least three fiber optic adapters includes at least six fiber optic adapters.
7. A fiber optic block according to claim 1 , wherein the at least three fiber optic adapters are configured for interconnecting SC-type fiber optic connectors.
