Abstract: A fiber optic backplane (20) has a casing portion (22) and multiple fiber optic ribbons (28) that extend from the same location (32) of the casing portion. One arrangement includes multiple optical fibers (26), a casing (22) and a set of ribbon coatings (24). The casing holds casing portions of the optical fibers. The set of ribbon coatings (24) holds ribbon portions of the optical fibers in rows to form multiple optical fiber ribbons. Each ribbon coating of the set of ribbon coatings attaches to the casing at a same location (32) of the casing such that the optical fiber ribbons extend from the same location of the casing. The multiple optical fiber ribbons extending from the same casing location enable higher optical fiber densities than conventional fiber optic backplanes which only have parallel ribbon portions extending from different locations (e.g., centimeters apart) of a central backplane portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a proof testing method and a proof testing apparatus for optical fibre where a fibre (1) is guided to a first pulling device (2) and further to a second pulling device (3) and then onto a reel (11, 12), whereby the pulling devices subject the fibre to a desired amount of tensile strength, as a result of which the fibre breaks if the fibre (1) strength is insufficient. To achieve a continuous pulling and proof testing process, the fibre end is guided in the case of a fibre break between the first and the second pulling device (2, 3) by means of a first channel section (5), which guides the fibre to the second pulling device (3). After the second pulling device (3) the fibre end is guided into a second channel section (8) which is off the normal fibre track and along which the fibre (1) is guided into a scrap fibre processing system. At a desired moment the fibre (1) is guided from the second channel section (8) to the normal track, along which the fibre is guided onto a reel (11, 12).

Abstract: A method is provided for cross-connecting individual optical fibers of a plurality of fiber optic ribbons and includes the steps of providing first and second substrates having adhesive thereon. Individual optical fibers are routed on the substrates to form at least portions of fiber optic input ribbons and fiber optic output ribbons, with the fibers extending beyond the substrates to define input and output tails. One substrate is positioned on top of another substrate, and a ribbonizing apparatus is used to gather the input and output tails in ribbon form whereupon they can be coated to hold the tails in their ribbon form.

Abstract: An apparatus for implanting one or more optical fibers (30) in a panel (54) having a uniform planar surface is comprised of a frame for supporting a fiber inserter above a fiber insertion table (16) which fiber inserter carries the optical fiber downward to the fiber insertion table (16) piercing the interposed panel at a desired point of insertion and carrying the optical fiber to the underside of the panel through an opening in the fiber insertion table (16). Adhesive is applied surrounding both tip of the optical fiber (30) on the underside of the panel (54) and surrounding the optical fiber (30) on the top side of the panel (54). Exposure to a curing mechanism causes a change of state of the adhesive resulting in the permanent adherence of the optical fiber to both sides of the panel (54) at the point of insertion.
