Abstract

A managed fiber optic connector assembly formed with an optical fiber management enclosure. The optical fiber management enclosure is formed with a back body as one-piece to form an integrated fiber optic management enclosure, or fiber optic management enclosure is inserted into the back body form a two-piece enclosure. The fiber management enclosure has a plural of channels, for example, an upper channel and a lower channel that retain, separate and guide a plural of optical fibers that are accepted through a port at a distal end of the managed fiber optic connector assembly.

1 . A fiber optic connector comprising:
 a housing;   a plurality of ferrules accommodated in the housing;   a fiber management enclosure accommodated in the housing; and   a strain relief boot connected to the housing,   
       wherein the fiber management enclosure is configured to receive the plurality of ferrules such that the plurality of ferrules are securely retained in the housing.
