Abstract
An adaptor and a method for mating a fiber optic connector to an adaptor are provided. The adaptor includes a retaining clip including a slideable surface. A shutter spring is positioned along the slideable surface. A shutter is pivotally connected to the retaining clip from a first angle prior to insertion of the connector into the adaptor to a second angle after receiving the connector. A main body forms an opening through which the retaining clip is received. The connector is insertable through an opening formed by a bushing and a sleeve. The method includes sliding the shutter spring into the retaining clip, connecting the shutter to the shutter spring, biasing the shutter in a forward direction via the shutter spring held in a non-orthogonal angle prior to insertion of the connector, and inserting the retaining clip including the shutter and the shutter spring into the main body.
