Abstract: A reel enclosure includes a base and a door pivotally coupled with the base. The door is movable between a first closed position and a second open position and is configured to hold a reel at an interior surface of the door. The reel is configured to have cable wound thereon. In the first closed position, the base is configured to prevent the reel from rotating relative to the door and the base, and, in the second open position, the door is configured to hold the reel outside of an interior of the base and permit the reel to rotate relative to the door and the base.

Abstract: A connector for coupling a fiber optic cable with a connection point includes a connector body at a first end of the connector and extending in a longitudinal direction and a connector housing at a second end of the connector. The connector body defines a first longitudinal conduit configured to receive a duct, and the duct is configured to slidingly receive the fiber optic cable. A compression fitting is configured to be received about a first end of the connector body and to slide relative to the connector body in the longitudinal direction to radially compress the first end of the connector body to grip the duct. The connector housing includes a second longitudinal conduit substantially aligned with the first longitudinal conduit in the longitudinal direction and a connection portion configured to couple the fiber optic cable to the connection point. The first longitudinal conduit and the second longitudinal conduit are configured to slidingly receive the fiber optic cable.

Abstract: A multi-fiber breakout assembly may include a breakout body portion that may be configured to break out a plurality of fiber cables from a multi-fiber cable, a body portion that may include a body-to-coupler engaging portion and a radially inward body-to-cable engaging portion that may be configured to engage an outwardly facing cable portion of a cable, and a coupler portion that may include a coupler-to-body engaging portion that may be configured to engage the body-to-coupler engaging portion of the body portion when the connector assembly is terminated on a cable. The coupler portion may be configured to move from a first position, where the coupler portion does not urge the radially inward body-to-cable engaging portion radially inward onto the outwardly facing cable portion of the multi-fiber cable, to a second position, where the coupler portion urges the radially body-to-cable engaging portion radially inward onto the outwardly facing cable portion of the cable so as to form a body-to-cable engagement portion when the coupler portion is in the second position. The body portion may include a breakout proximate body end portion that is located proximate to the breakout body portion when the coupler portion is in the second position. The coupler portion may be configured to tool-lessly provide a mechanical connector assembly-to-cable connection that may be configured to allow the connector to be connected to the cable without having to use a tool.
