Abstract
An adapter is provided for interfacing MOF connectors with one another where the MOF connectors have optical pathways that bend by a non-zero-degree angle (e.g., 90°±15°) in between the ends of the optical fibers held in the connectors and the output facets of the connectors. The adapter is configured to mate with two such connectors and to bring their optical pathways into precise optical alignment with one another.
