An enclosure box assembly for fiber optic cable includes an enclosure box, a backplate, a preterminated fiber optic drop cable preinstalled with the enclosure box, and a fiber optic adapter preinstalled with the enclosure box and optically connected with the fiber optic drop cable. The backplate includes a plurality of latches that are configured to interlock with a complementary latching structure on the enclosure box, and a plurality of slotted countersunk screw holes configured to receive screws for attaching the backplate to a support structure. The backplate includes a first exit opening through a middle portion of the backplate, a second exit opening at a top end of the backplate, and a third exit opening at a bottom end of the backplate.

A method and apparatus for contactless installation of an optical fiber internet connection at a customer premises is provided, wherein the customer is provided with an interior installation kit and is guided by an installation technician. The customer remains inside the premises, selects an entry point for the fiber, and indicates the entry point to the technician using a remote detection target. The technician locates the detection target, bores a hole into the premises, passes an optical fiber in to the customer, and the customer secures an attachment mount to the interior wall of the premises to receive the optical fiber and upon which to connect and mount an optical network terminal. After the optical fiber has been connected, the customer network is activated, and the technician seals the external hole.

The present disclosure relates to a process by which an optical fiber drop cable is created and routed in a multiple dwelling unit (“MDU”). The optical fiber drop cable is formed with a feeding tool, and the optical fiber drop cable includes a tube having optical fibers enclosed within the tube. The feeding tool creates a slit within the tube through which optical fibers are fed and thereby inserted into the tube along the tube's length. Once the tube exits the feeding tool with the optical fibers enclosed (thereby forming the optical fiber drop cable), the optical fiber drop cable is then routed into an individual dwelling unit of the MDU by a transition assembly including a transition plug and a routing plug that leads an optical fiber from an exterior of the individual dwelling unit to a subscriber termination point in an interior of the individual dwelling unit.

A transition for an optical fibre cable (11) through a partition. The optical fibre cable (11) is received inside a shield pipe (1, 4), which shield pipe (1, 4) is of an electrically conductive material. The shield pipe (1, 4) is received in an axial through opening (6, 21) of the holding means. One end of the shield pipe (1, 4) is received inside a holding means having a sealing function.

A fish stick includes a light emitting component, such as a lighted tip, near the leading end of the fish stick. The lighted tip includes a curved lens that directs some light around an attachment piece at the end of the fish stick and generally in the forward direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the fish stick. The fish stick may be made of a phosphorescent material and stored in a lit container with an LED and reflective surfaces. The fish stick may be made of multiple rods that are threadably engaged with each other and include a spring biasing element that increases the coefficient of friction between the threads of the rods. The fish stick may also be made of multiple rods that are threadably engaged with each other via collars.

The present disclosure relates to a wall mount bracket having an adjustable receiving area to engage and hold multiports of varying sizes. In some embodiments, the bracket comprises: an attachment plate; a pivot plate coupled to the attachment plate; an adjustable plate coupled to the pivot plate to define a receiving area, wherein the adjustable plate adjustably couples to the pivot plate such that a width of the receiving area can be adjusted to accommodate different size multiports.

A method for making fiber optic cabling on buildings of various kinds; in particular, where the excavation of tracks to house the lines inside walls is problematic. The invention includes a wiring technique that allows a laying without prepared raceways. The optical cable can also be laid inside normal raceways. The optical cable can easily separate single fibers from bundles to facilitate the creation of networks, limiting as much as possible the number of joints. These objectives can be reached by using a cable consisting of a strip-shaped cable, in which a variable number of optical fibers are arranged side by side; and this strip-shaped cable is having side-by-side optical fibers comprised between two containment bands and are also immersed into a substance with lubricating properties. Moreover, the two containment bands also provide resistance to traction, and the external surface of the containment bands is adhesive.

The present disclosure relates to a wall mount bracket having an adjustable receiving area to engage and hold multiports of varying sizes.

A factory processed and assembled optical fiber arrangement is configured to pass through tight, tortuous spaces when routed to a demarcation point. A connector housing attaches to the optical fiber arrangement at the demarcation point (or after leaving the tight, tortuous spaces) to form a connectorized end of the optical fiber. A fiber tip is protected before leaving the factory until connection is desired.
