Abstract: A fiber deployment system is suitable for field installed fiber tubes such as blown fiber tubes. The fiber deployment system includes a fiber optic connector including a housing assembly having a connector body and a fiber tube attached at a rear end of the connector body. A ferrule assembly mounted on a deployable fiber can be loaded into the connector body through the fiber tube. The fiber tube can be coupled to a field installed fiber tube by a tube coupler.

Abstract: Systems, assemblies and methods for deploying an optical fiber through a duct to a customer premises. A blowable section of the optical fiber is blown through the duct. A non-blowable section of the optical fiber is coupled to a trail end of the duct. The non-blowable section can be terminated with a hardened or ruggedized connector. The optical fiber, including both the blowable and non-blowable sections, can be wound around a spool for easy payout of the blowable section.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a hardened fiber optic fan-out arrangement including a fan-out housing. A plurality of fiber optic pigtails projects outwardly from the fan-out housing. The fiber optic pigtails have free ends including hardened de-mateable fiber optic connection interfaces. A fiber optic feeder cable also projects outwardly from the fan-out housing. The fiber optic feeder cable is optically coupled to the fiber optic pigtails.

Abstract: An optical fiber testing device (300) being plugged into a port at which optical signals including communication and test signals within different wavelength bands being received, comprises an optical connector (304) including a plug body surrounding a ferrule holding an optical fiber (301) and a reflector component (326) carried with the optical connector (304). The reflector component (326) is optically coupled to the rear of the optical fiber and reflects the test signal. A method for testing an optical fiber, comprises removably securing a reusable ruggedized optical fiber testing device to a ruggedized port of an optical fiber terminal to optically couple to an optical fiber under test, transmitting a test signal over the optical fiber under test, and using the reflector component to return the test signal over the optical fiber under test when receiving the test signal.

Abstract: An indexed cable arrangement can be installed in a re-enterable housing. The optical fibers of the cable are indexed between a first; ruggedized multi-fiber connector and a second multi-fiber connector. The second multi-fiber connector may be non-ruggedized and disposed within the housing (e.g., at an adapter) or ruggedized and disposed external of the housing (e.g., terminating a stub cable). One or more drop lines are terminated by respective non-ruggedized, single-fiber connectors disposed within the housing. In certain examples, drop lines may be split into multiple conneaorized single-fiber outputs.

Abstract: A telecommunications closure includes a plurality of connector ports, and a plurality of dust caps for the connector ports wherein a lanyard connects one of the dust caps with one of the ports. The dust caps are mateable and demateable with each of the ports. The closure with the dust caps in place are sealed for outdoor use. All of the port bodies of the ports have the same general color. All of the dust caps have the same general color as the port bodies. The lanyards may have different colors from the port bodies and different colors from the dust cap. Some lanyards can match the color of the port bodies and/or the dust cap bodies. At least two lanyards may have different colors from each other. One or more identification areas can be provided on the lanyard for labeling, printing or marking indicia on the identification areas.

Abstract: A fiber optic cable terminal proximally terminates a stub cable carrying one or more optical fibers. The stub cable is structurally adapted to be advanced through at least a portion of a conduit by distally pushing a distal end of the stub cable from a location that is proximal to a proximal end of the conduit and without applying any pulling force at any location that is distal to the proximal end of the conduit.
