摘要： A fiber distribution terminal system includes a below ground vault, and a terminal enclosure within the vault. The system also includes a lift system in the vault, the lift system including a screw drive and a track system. Rotation of the screw drive lifts the terminal enclosure from a below ground to a lifted position, and the track system guides the terminal enclosure as the enclosure is lifted. The system also includes a tool such as a cordless drill to drive the screw drive. The screw drive can include a ball screw and a ball nut. The system can include a bracket to couple the terminal enclosure to the screw drive and the track system. The track system can include two sets of tracks, a first set of tracks that is fixed in the vault, and a second set of tracks that is coupled to the first set of tracks.

摘要： 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.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于光纤适配器的检查探针。 检查探头可以检查光纤适配器内的光纤端接端。 光纤适配器可以包括位于第一和第二端口之间的套圈接收器。 检查探针被插入到光纤适配器的第一端口中，并且检查探针的耦合特征与套圈接收器接合并对齐。 将光纤连接器插入到光纤适配器的第二端口中，并且光纤连接器的套圈与套圈接收器对准。 套圈保持光纤的端接端，从而将端接端定位在套圈接收器内。 因此，检查探针的图像捕获端由此位于光纤的端接端附近，并且可以检查端接端和/或套圈。

摘要： A fiber optic connector is disclosed for use with both a hardened fiber optic adapter and a non-hardened fiber optic adapter. The connector includes a connector housing having an end defining a plug portion. The plug portion includes first and second sets of retaining features for retaining the connector. The first and second retaining feature sets retain the connector within the hardened and unhardened adapters respectively. A threaded member can be included on the connector to threadingly engage and connect the connector to the hardened adapter. A sliding lock can be included on the connector to lock the connector to the non-hardened adapter when slid into a locking position. The sliding lock can be mounted to the threaded member. The sliding lock can include protrusions that engage and lock the non-hardened adapter when in the locking position thereby locking the non-hardened adapter to the connector.

摘要： A fiber optic connection system includes a ruggedized fiber optic adapter and a ruggedized fiber optic connector and can further include a standard fiber optic connector (e.g., an SC connector), a pre-existing ruggedized fiber optic adapter, a first converter for converting the standard fiber optic connector to be compatible with the ruggedized fiber optic adapter, a second converter for converting the ruggedized fiber optic connector to be compatible with the pre-existing ruggedized fiber optic adapter, and a standard fiber optic adapter (e.g., an SC adapter). The ruggedized fiber optic connector is compatible with the ruggedized fiber optic adapter and with the standard fiber optic adapter. To retain the various connectors within the various adapters, various retention members and features (e.g. threaded retention members and latches) can be included in the fiber optic connection system. The first converter includes a converter housing that is sized to fit over a connector body of the standard fiber optic connector and retention shoulders of the connector body engage the converter housing.

摘要： A cable attachment system is disclosed for attaching a fiber optic connector to a fiber optic cable. In particular, strength members of the fiber optic cable are crimped between a crimp sleeve and a cable anchor, and the cable anchor is anchored to the fiber optic connector. An end of the crimp sleeve is adapted to receive an end of a jacket of the fiber optic cable. An end of the cable anchor includes a nipple adapted for insertion into the end of the jacket. An end portion of the jacket is crimped between an intermediate portion of the crimp sleeve and the nipple of the cable anchor. A support portion of the crimp sleeve, positioned between the end and the intermediate portion of crimp sleeve, supports a transitioning portion of the jacket beyond the end of the cable anchor.
