Abstract

A tool-less grouping apparatus has a main body with a top portion and a bottom portion. Dividing members extending between the top and bottom portions make openings for fiber optic connectors. Forward facing surfaces may be on both the top and bottom portions to engage the fiber optic connectors. The portions also have cut-outs that can engage the fiber optic connectors to assist in removing the fiber optic connectors from adapters.
