摘要： A fiber optic cable assembly includes leg assemblies, a trunk assembly, a splice assembly, and a furcation assembly. Each leg assembly includes a jacket, an optical fiber, strength members, and a connector. The trunk assembly includes a jacket, optical fibers, strength members, and a multi-fiber connector. The splice assembly includes a tube supporting the optical fibers of the leg and trunk assemblies that are spliced together. The furcation assembly is attached to the splice assembly and includes a fan-out structure and first and second locks. The first lock binds the strength members of the leg assemblies to the furcation assembly, and the second lock binds the strength members of the trunk to the furcation assembly. As such, the furcation assembly provides a mechanical linkage between the trunk and leg assemblies to strain relieve the spliced optical fibers in the tube.

摘要翻译： 光纤电缆组件包括腿组件，躯干组件，接头组件和分叉组件。 每个腿组件包括护套，光纤，强度构件和连接器。 躯干组件包括护套，光纤，强度构件和多纤维连接器。 接头组件包括支撑腿部的光纤的管和拼接在一起的主干组件。 分叉组件附接到接头组件，并且包括扇出结构和第一和第二锁。 第一锁将腿部组件的强度构件结合到分叉组件，并且第二锁将躯干的强度构件结合到分叉组件。 因此，分叉组件在躯干和腿组件之间提供机械联动，以减轻管中的拼接光纤。
