Zusammenfassung:Devices such as terminals comprising connection ports with associated securing features and methods for making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the device comprises a shell, at least one connection port, and at least one securing feature. The at least one connection port is disposed on the terminal with the at least one connection port comprising an optical connector opening extending from an outer surface of the terminal to a cavity of the terminal and defining a connection port passageway. The securing feature is associated with the connection port passageway and is biased by a resilient member having a predetermined pre-load restoring force to the retain position.
