An optical fiber connection system for connecting a plurality optical fibers is described. The connection system comprises a first bare fiber holder comprising a first splice element and a second bare fiber holder comprising a second splice element. Each of the first and second splice elements comprises a splice body having a first end and a second end and a plurality of alternating alignment and clamping channels formed in a top surface of splice body that extend from the first end to the second end of the splice body. When the first and second bare fiber holders are mated, at least a portion of the alignment channels of the first spice element overlap a portion of the clamping channels in the second splice element and at least a portion of the clamping channels of the first splice element overlap a portion of the alignment channels of the second splice element to hold the first and second optical fibers in end to end alignment.

An optical fiber connection system (100) for connecting a plurality of optical fibers is described. The connection system comprises a first bare fiber holder (120) comprising a first splice element (160) and a second bare fiber holder (120) comprising a second splice element (160). Each of the first and second splice elements (160,160) comprises a splice body (161) having a first end (160a) and a second end (160b) and a plurality of alternating alignment and clamping channels (165,167) formed in a top surface (161b) of the splice body (161) that extend from the first end to the second end of the splice body. When the first and second bare fiber holders (120,120′) are mated, at least a portion of the alignment channels (165) of the first splice element (160) overlap a portion of the clamping channels (167) in the second splice element (160′) and at least a portion of the clamping channels (167) of the first splice element (160) overlap a portion of the alignment channels (165) of the second splice element (160′) to hold the first and second optical fibers in end to end alignment.

An optical fiber connection system (600) configured to interconnect a plurality of first and second optical fibers (54, 54′) is described. The connection system comprises a first bare fiber holder (620) that includes a clamping plate (540) having an interconnection portion (544) with a generally planar surface, wherein bare ends of the plurality of first optical fibers (54) are disposed adjacent to interconnection portion (544) and wherein the plurality of first optical fibers (54) are secured in the first bare fiber holder (620) at a first distance from the bare ends of the plurality of first optical fibers (54) and a second bare fiber holder (620′) that includes a splicing plate (580) having a plurality of alignment channels (585), wherein a bare end of each of the second optical fibers (54′) extend at least partially into one of the plurality of alignment channels (585) and wherein the plurality of second optical fibers (54′) are held at a second distance from the bare ends of the plurality of second optical fibers (54′).
摘要:
An optical connector having at least one removable integrated assembly tool for terminating an optical fiber cable is described. The connector comprises a housing configured to mate with a receptacle, a collar body disposed in the housing, a backbone that retains the collar body in the housing, a removable funnel-shaped and a fiber boot. The collar body secures a ferrule secured at a first end thereof, and includes mechanical element disposed in an intermediate portion and a buffer clamping portion near a second end of the collar body. The backbone has a mounting structure surrounding a central bore at one end. The funnel-shaped fiber guide attaches to the mounting structure to facilitate insertion of an optical fiber into the connector, and wherein the fiber boot is attachable to the mounting structure after the fiber guide has been removed.
摘要:
A ruggedized cable connection structure configured to direct mate first and second ruggedized optical fiber connectors is disclosed. The connection assembly has a housing having a channel extending from a first end of the housing through to the second end of the housing, an adapter secured within the channel near a midpoint of the housing to enable direct mating of the first and second ruggedized optical fiber connectors, and an integral mounting flange extending from the housing to allow connection to a mounting surface.
摘要:
Fiber management assemblies, trays and network interface devices for use in telecommunications that incorporate such assemblies and trays are described. Fiber management trays can include integrated slack storage systems and mechanical fiber splice devices mounted into integrated splice holding grooves, where the mechanical fiber splice devices are actuated by a fiber splice actuation mechanism positioned over the mechanical fiber splice device, as are network interface devices incorporating such assemblies and trays.
摘要:
A cable routing system is described. More specifically, described is a cable routing system that includes a main fiber channel configured to receive a drop fiber to allow it to fit within the main fiber channel, where the channel is surrounded by a discontinuous segmented duct, and the duct comprises a continuous flange structure to provide support for the system as it is installed on or fastened to a wall or other generally flat surface.
摘要:
An optical fiber connector includes a housing configured to mate with a receptacle, a collar body that includes a fiber stub and a mechanical splice device, a backbone to retain the collar body within the housing, and a boot. The backbone includes a fiber jacket clamping portion to clamp a jacket portion that surrounds a portion of the terminated optical fiber upon actuation. The boot actuates the fiber jacket clamping portion of the backbone upon attachment to the backbone. The optical fiber connector can be terminated in the field without the need to use a separate termination platform or tool.
摘要:
A cable assembly for cell tower communications comprises a plurality of optical fiber cable units disposed within a unitary cable assembly jacket that surrounds the optical fiber cable units. The cable assembly jacket has a plurality of indentations disposed between adjacent optical fiber cable units that allow an installer to furcate the cable assembly into smaller cable groupings at a convenient cell tower location.
