description An inspection probe is disclosed for use with a fiber optic adapter. The inspection probe can inspect a terminated end of an optical fiber within the fiber optic adapter. The fiber optic adapter can include a ferrule receiver located between first and second ports. The inspection probe is inserted into the first port of the fiber optic adapter and a coupling feature of the inspection probe engages and aligns with the ferrule receiver. A fiber optic connector is inserted into the second port of the fiber optic adapter and a ferrule of the fiber optic connector aligns with the ferrule receiver. The ferrule holds the terminated end of the optical fiber and thereby positions the terminated end within the ferrule receiver. An image capturing end of the inspection probe is thereby positioned proximal the terminated end of the optical fiber and can inspect the terminated end and/or the ferrule.
