Abstract: An optical connection terminal includes a first connection module and a second connection module that each terminate multi-fiber cables. The second connection module operatively couples to the first connection module so that at least one of the optical connectors of the first connection module directly optically couples with one of the optical connectors of the second connection module. A connection between the at least one optical connector of the first connection module and the optical connector of the second connection module is sealed from an exterior of the terminal.

Abstract: A cable storage device (100) includes a removal station (110) and a storage spool (120). Slack length of the cable (190) is advanced into the cable storage device. At least a jacket (195) of the cable (190) is removed at the removal station (110). At least a signal-carrying portion of the cable (190) is wound at the storage spool (120). The removed jacket (195) exits the cable storage device (100). The cable (190) can be axially secured at the cable storage device (100). Certain types of spools can index the cable.
