    Abstract: A breakout transition assembly including a plurality of optical fibers extending through a cable, a plurality of furcation tubes and a housing with a cable inlet and a furcation chamber. The cable, optical fibers and furcation tubes are fixed relative to the housing with a volume of hardened epoxy in the furcation chamber. The cable inlet includes a clearance that tapers between a first end and a second end. In another aspect, the breakout transition can also include a breakout holder comprising at least one guide, such that the plurality of furcation tubes are fixedly received in the at least one guide in the breakout holder, and the volume of hardened epoxy retains the breakout holder in an engaged position with the transition body.

    Abstract: A fiber optic cable spool is disclosed herein. The fiber optic cable spool may include a first radial flange located at a first axial end of the fiber optic cable spool, a second radial flange located at a second axial end of the fiber optic cable spool, and a drum that extends axially between the first and second radial flanges. The fiber optic cable spool may also include a storage compartment located within the drum. The first radial flange may define a first opening for accessing the storage compartment within the drum. The drum may have a circumferential drum surface that defines a second opening for accessing the storage compartment within the drum.
