An example system for fiber connector assembly is provided. The system includes an adapter configured to at least partially receive a plug housing subassembly. The system includes a base station configured to receive the adapter, the plug housing subassembly, and a first backshell component. The base station includes structural features designed to align and maintain a position of the plug housing subassembly relative to the first backshell component prior to securing a second backshell component to the first backshell component.

System for fiber connector assembly

An example method of polishing multi-fiber fiber optic ferrules with a polishing device is provided. The polishing device includes a polishing component with a polishing surface and a surface for securing multi-fiber fiber optic ferrules such that endfaces of the multi-fiber fiber optic ferrules are oriented to face and be positioned against the polishing surface. The method includes orienting an application device with a spray nozzle about 8 inches to about 12 inches away from the polishing surface, and orienting the spray nozzle of the application device at a downward angle of about 200 to about 300 relative to horizontal and the polishing surface. The method includes applying a fine mist of fluid from the spray nozzle toward the polishing surface to completely coat the polishing surface with the fluid. The method includes positioning the endfaces of the multi-fiber fiber optic ferrules against the polishing surface and polishing the endfaces.

Multi-fiber fiber optic ferrule polishing systems and methods

An example system for housing disassembly is provided. The system includes a first component including a platform defining an interior space configured and dimensioned to at least partially receive a first side of a housing including a first set of latching points. The system includes blades extending from the platform of the first component. The blades are disposed in a pattern to align with the first set of latching points of the housing when the housing is at least partially received in the interior space of the platform. Compressing the platform towards the housing or compressing the housing towards the platform disengages the first set of latching points of the housing with the blades to disassemble the housing.
