A field termination kit includes an optical fiber preparation device for preparing an end of an optical fiber, an optical inspection device for inspecting the end of the optical fiber, and a termination assembly for terminating the end of the optical fiber. A method of using a field termination kit includes rotating an end of a first optical fiber about a center of an abrasive portion of an optical fiber preparation tool. The end is pressed against an adhesive portion of the optical fiber preparation tool to clean contaminants from the end. The end is inserted into an inner passage of an optical fiber inspection device for viewing. The end is inserted into a termination assembly. The end is terminated to an end of a second optical fiber in a termination region of the termination assembly.

A fiber optic connector assembly includes a connector and a carrier. The connector has a first mating end and a second end and an optical fiber terminated thereto. The fiber defines a first end adjacent the mating end and a second end protruding out of the second end of the fiber optic connector. A carrier having a connector end and an oppositely disposed cable end is engaged with the connector. An alignment structure is disposed on the carrier that includes a first end and a second end and a throughhole extending therebetween, the alignment structure including a cutaway portion extending perpendicularly to and communicating with the throughhole. The optical fiber terminated to the fiber optic connector is positioned within at least a portion of the throughhole with the second end of the optical fiber located within the cutaway portion. A window is disposed within the cutaway portion over the second end of the optic fiber, the window for visually inspecting the alignment of the second end of the fiber with an end of a second fiber entering the cable end of the carrier. A heat activated element that is configured to melt when exposed to a predetermined amount of heat and resolidify when the heat is removed bonds the second optical fiber to the alignment structure.

An optical fiber terminating assembly includes a housing, which can receive an optical fiber to be terminated so that it is located in alignment with a length of another optical fiber, or an optoelectronic device, a heat responsive adhesive element, and a thermally conductive element. The housing includes a compartment through which the optical fiber to be terminated can extend. The heat responsive adhesive element is disposed in the compartment and includes at least one pathway preformed dispose in the heat responsive adhesive element. A portion of the optical fiber is disposed in the pathway. The thermally conductive element is disposed in the compartment and is coupleable to a source of energy so that heat in the thermally conductive element causes the heat responsive adhesive element to soften and adhere to the optical fiber in the channel to secure it in position.

A cabinet tamper detection device is disclosed. The tamper detection device includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes a housing and a first magnet movable relative to the housing between a first position and a second position. The second portion includes a second magnet. The first and the second magnets are configured such that the second magnet applies a magnetic force on the first magnet to keep the first magnet at the first position when the first and the second magnets are at a predetermined relative position. When at least one of the first and the second magnets is moved from the predetermined relative position, the first magnet moves from the first position to the second position to trigger a tamper warning.
