摘要:
A fiber optic cable system includes a fiber optic main cable having a strength member and a plurality of optical fibers extending therein within an outer cable sheath. A flexible longitudinally extending inner housing is positioned proximate the plurality of optical fibers on a section of the main cable having the outer cable sheath removed. At least one fiber optic drop cable has at least one optical fiber having an end portion extending outwardly from an end of the drop cable. The end portion is spliced together with an end portion of a corresponding at least one severed end portion of one of the plurality of optical fibers of the main cable to define at least one spliced together fiber portion coupling at least one of the plurality of optical fibers of the main cable to a corresponding one of the at least one fiber of the drop cable. A longitudinally extending outer protective housing extends over the section of the main cable having the outer cable sheath removed and the inner housing and the strength member. The outer protective housing has a first opening receiving the main cable and a second opening, longitudinally displaced from the first opening, receiving the main cable and at least one of the openings receiving the drop cable or cables.

An enclosure system for receiving a cable includes an enclosure having an inner chamber and an open position exposing the inner chamber and a closed position covering the inner chamber. A cable receiving port in a wall of the enclosure extends along a longitudinal axis from outside of the enclosure into the inner chamber. The cable receiving port is configured to receive a cable therein when the cable is advanced axially into the port without rotation of the cable when the enclosure is in the closed position. A mating member is associated with the cable receiving port that limits rotation of the cable when the cable is advanced axially into the port. An axial retention member is associated with the cable receiving port that limits axial movement of the cable out of the port when the cable is advanced axially into the port to a lock position.

A closure device for receiving a fiber optic cable includes an enclosure defining a splice chamber configured to accommodate splices to the plurality of optical fibers. The enclosure has a clamp receiving section therein. The closure device further includes a clamping device configured to concurrently secure the remaining portion of the jacket and the strength member at a same clamp interface of the clamping device. The clamping device is configured to be removably inserted into the clamp receiving section of the enclosure. The clamp receiving section is configured to fixedly limit movement of the clamping device relative to the enclosure when the clamping device is installed therein to secure the remaining portion of the jacket and the strength member secured in the clamping device to the enclosure.

A sealing assembly for providing an environmental seal about an elongate member includes a housing defining a passage to receive an elongate member, a flowable sealant disposed in the passage, a compression mechanism and a trigger mechanism. The compression mechanism includes a biasing member. The biasing member is configured to apply a compression load against the sealant and the compression mechanism is configured to force the sealant to flow about the elongate member to provide an environmental seal about the elongate member. The trigger mechanism is configured to selectively actuate the biasing member to apply the compression load to the sealant.

An optical fiber termination apparatus includes a body portion having an optical fiber outlet therein and a connector receiving portion extending from the body portion and having an outer wall defining an optical fiber connector receiving chamber and having an opening to the connector receiving chamber at an end thereof spaced from the body portion. An optical connector is positioned in the opening, wherein the opening is configured to receive the optical connector therein without rotating the optical connector relative to the connector receiving portion. A sealing member is positioned between the optical connector and the outer wall of the connector receiving portion to seal a gap therebetween. A cover is positioned on the optical connector and the connector receiving portion that retains the optical connector in the opening and compresses the sealing member between the outer wall of the connector receiving portion and the optical connector without rotating the optical connector relative to the connector receiving portion.

According to embodiments of the present invention, a cable sealing assembly for providing an environmental seal about a cable includes a housing, a flowable cable sealant and a compression feature. The housing includes first and second housing parts. The first housing part defines a cable passage to receive a cable having a lengthwise cable axis. The cable sealant is disposed in the cable passage. The compression feature forms at least a part of the second housing part and is movable in an installation direction between a ready position and an installed position. The compression feature is shaped and configured to force the cable sealant to flow about the cable in a direction transverse to the cable axis to circumferentially surround a portion of the cable when the compression feature is moved from the ready position to the installed position.
