Abstract: A dust cap includes a cap body and a pair of opposing latches. The cap body is adapted to cover a connectorized end of a fiber optic connector and cable assembly when the connectorized end is inserted through an opening of an interior of the cap body. The cap body further includes an opposing pair of resilient walls. The pair of opposing latches each include latching features that extend outside of the interior of the cap body. The pair of opposing latches each further include a mounting portion mounted to a respective one of the opposing pair of resilient walls. The dust cap may further include a pulling interface. The pulling interface may be adapted to attach to a pulling member and may be positioned at a tapered nose of the cap body. The dust cap may thereby be a cable pulling cap and may pull a fiber optic connector and cable assembly through conduits and other narrow passages. A pair of opposing pulling halves may enclose the cable pulling cap or the dust cap without a pulling interface and at least a portion of the connectorized end of the fiber optic connector and cable assembly.

Abstract: Certain splice arrangements include first and second laminate structures bonded around a splice location at which two or more optical fibers are spliced (e.g., fusion spliced) together. The first and second laminate structures each include a flexible polymeric sheet and a heat activated adhesive layer carried by the flexible polymeric sheet. Other splice arrangements include a protective barrier disposed about an optical splice. The protective barrier includes first and second protective layers bonded around the optical splice. Each protective layer include a film carrying an adhesive. The protective barrier may be sufficiently flexible to not restrict flexing the optical fibers at the splice location. Example splice arrangements have thicknesses of less than or equal to 1000 microns, or 900 microns, or 800 microns, or 700 microns, or 600 microns or 500 microns.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to structures and configurations for breaking out fibers from cables and/or securing the ends of protective mesh sleeves to other structures such as brackets, cables and trays/cassettes. The mesh sleeves can be adapted to protect optical fibers that pass therethrough. In one example, a mesh sleeve can be secured to another structure by an anchor including a reinforcing insert that fits in the mesh sleeve and a clamping housing that mounts over the mesh sleeve.

Abstract: Splice housings for distributing large numbers of optical fiber splices. In some examples, the splice housings can be pivoted relative to each other. In some examples, the splice housings include flexible splice holders configured to hold multiple splices for a first subset of optical fibers while allowing passage of a second subset of optical fibers through the splice holder.

Abstract: A packaging dispenser for bend-resistant items. In some embodiments, the dispenser includes a container storing bags of cables in an alternating folded pattern. In some embodiments, a vertically floating dispensing guide guides the bags through a slot in the container. The dispensing guide is configured and arranged to limit over-bending of the items as the items are dispensed through the slot and to stabilize the folded pattern.

Abstract: A multi-fiber cable assembly includes a pigtail segments spliced to a trunk segment using multiple mass fusion splices. The splices are disposed within an encapsulation at a common axial location. A flexible conduit extends from one end of the encapsulation to protect bare fibers of the trunk segment. A protective sheath extends from the opposite end of the encapsulation to protect the pigtail segments. The conduit and sheath are axially fixed to the encapsulation.

Abstract: A cable anchor includes an anchor mounting structure and a cable mounting structure. The anchor mounting structure can releasably mount to a support plate along either of two paths. The cable mounting structure secures one or more cables to the cable anchor. Some example cable mounting structures are configured to receive wrap-style fasteners to hold cables. Other example cable mounting structures include fanout bodies configured to receive epoxy. Other example cable mounting structures include cavities configured to engage overmolded retention features of a cable.
