A dust plug for a fiber optic connector includes a plug wall, an alignment member and a ferrule protector. The plug wall includes a first side and a second side. The plug wall may or may not be part of a housing. The alignment member may extend from the first side of the plug wall wherein the alignment member is configured to engage with and be disposed within an adapter. The ferrule protector may extend from the second side of the plug wall wherein the ferrule protector may be configured to receive a ferrule of a fiber optic cable. The ferrule protector, the plug wall, and the alignment member may be configured to block a signal from the ferrule when the ferrule is disposed within the ferrule protector and when the member is inserted into the adapter.
