Abstract
An optical adaptor for mounting to a receptacle to optically couple connectorized optical cables comprises an optical interface to optically couple a first connectorized optical cable terminated by a first optical connector and a second connectorized optical cable terminated by a second optical connector. The optical adaptor further comprises a mounting element being configured to insert the optical interface and being mountable to the receptacle. The mounting element is secured to the receptacle, when the first optical connector is mounted to the mounting element in a first state, and the mounting element is released from the receptacle, when the first optical connector is mounted to the mounting element in a second state allowing to pull the optical adaptor out of the receptacle.
