    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a cable assembly including a sleeve and a plurality of cables that extend through the sleeve. The cable assembly also includes a grommet positioned within the sleeve at a location offset from one end of the sleeve. The grommet forms a dam location. The cable assembly further includes a bonding material at least partially filling a region of the sleeve located between the dam location and the end of the sleeve. The bonding material bonds the fiber optic cables and the grommet relative to the sleeve. The cables extend through the grommet and the bonding material and include break-out portions that extend outwardly beyond the end of the sleeve.

    摘要: The disclosed fiber optic cable splice case may include (1) an outer enclosure with a plurality of cable funnels defining paths from an exterior to an interior of the outer enclosure, (2) a clamp connected to the exterior of the outer enclosure, where the clamp attaches the outer enclosure to a powerline conductor, and (3) an inner enclosure positioned at least partially within, and rotatably coupled to, the outer enclosure, where the inner enclosure defines (a) a splice cavity within the inner enclosure, where the cavity is configured to store an optical fiber splice tray for coupling corresponding optical fibers of each of a pair of fiber optic cable segments and (b) a cable channel about an exterior of the inner enclosure, where the cable channel carries a portion of each of the pair of segments between the funnels and the cavity. Various other components and methods are also disclosed.
