ABSTRACT A fiber optic wall outlet has an annular flange for mounting to a wall, and a hood mounted in the flange. The hood is movable between a closed position wherein the hood is flush with the wall, and an open position wherein the hood projects away from the wall. The wall outlet further includes a spring member which urges the hood to snap outward, and fingers which engage against the annular flange and prevent hood from snapping outward. When a positive upward force is applied to hood, the fingers are freed from the flange and the hood snaps outward. An interconnect assembly to which a first optical fiber cable is connected is mounted in wall outlet. When hood snaps outward, access is provided to interconnect assembly so that a plug connected to a second optical fiber cable can be plugged into interconnect assembly thereby optically coupling the optical fibers in the two cables.
