Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a ferrule boot for mounting in a multi-fiber ferrule. The ferrule boot may include a body member that has a distal end and a proximal end. The body member may define a plurality of openings that extend lengthwise therethrough with each opening being configured for receiving a respective one of a plurality of optical fibers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fiber optic cable breakout assembly that includes a transition body made from a moldable material having an inlet end and an opposite outlet end. The moldable transition body includes a centering element positioned therein and an internal splice positioned within the centering element to splice a plurality of breakout fibers to at least one cable. The centering element is configured to center the splice, the at least one cable and the plurality of breakout fibers prior to molding the transition body. The transition body is adapted to protect the splice and fibers such that no other external protection is needed.

Abstract: Certain splice arrangements include first and second laminate structures bonded around a splice location at which two or more optical fibers are spliced (e.g., fusion spliced) together. The first and second laminate structures each include a flexible polymeric sheet and a heat activated adhesive layer carried by the flexible polymeric sheet. Other splice arrangements include a protective barrier disposed about an optical splice. The protective barrier includes first and second protective layers bonded around the optical splice. Each protective layer include a film carrying an adhesive. The protective barrier may be sufficiently flexible to not restrict flexing the optical fibers at the splice location. Example splice arrangements have thicknesses of less than or equal to 1000 microns, or 900 microns, or 800 microns, or 700 microns, or 600 microns or 500 microns.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes a fiber optic cable having a conduit including a conduit wall defining a conduit passage that extends longitudinally through the conduit. The conduit also includes an adhesive injection port defined through the conduit wall and at least one optical fiber within the conduit passage. The cable further includes a fiber lock including an adhesive volume in communication with the adhesive injection port. The adhesive volume includes a main adhesive volume positioned within the conduit passage and bonded to the optical fiber. The main adhesive volume is fixed to prevent longitudinal movement relative to the conduit.
