Cable seal and strain relief assembly
A fiber optic assembly is provided including a housing having an exterior and an internal volume, a cable port configured for a plurality of fiber optic cables to pass from the exterior to the internal volume of the housing, and a cable strain relief. The cable strain relief includes a base and a restraint projection extending from the base. The restraint projection includes opposing first second faces, a leading edge facing the internal volume, and a trailing edge facing the exterior. The restraint projection is configured to receive the plurality of fiber optic cables banded at a first location disposed at the leading edge and a second location disposed at the trailing edge, such that a portion of the plurality of fiber optic cables is disposed at the first and second faces, and the restraint projection resists lateral movement of the plurality of fiber optic cables relative to the base.
Fiber Splice Closure
A fiber splice closure for housing an optical connection between a distribution cable and at least one drop cable of an optical network includes a base and an insert. The base includes round drop cable ports configured to receive a drop cable containing a first optical fiber. Screw holes are arranged in a radial side wall of the drop cable ports and receive a fixing device to secure the drop cable. A round port receives a distribution cable containing a second optical fiber. A clamp secures the distribution cable to the base. An insert has first and second wrap guides that house excess first optical fiber. A center section is arranged between the first and second wrap guides and includes a splitter module, splice protector holder elements that hold splice protectors, an LC adaptor that receives the second optical fiber from the distribution cable, and an LC connector module that connects the first optical fiber to the splitter, which in turn is connected to the LC adaptor, thereby providing an optical connection between the distribution cable and the drop cable.
Grommet for cable hanger
A grommet adapted for insertion into a cable hanger includes a generally C-shaped main body formed of a polymeric material and having a longitudinal axis. Such a grommet can be securely held by a cable hanger.
Fiber Enclosure
The present disclosure provides improved media patching systems, and related methods of use. The present disclosure provides improved systems/methods for the design and use of patching systems configured to support multiple media connections (e.g., high density media connections). More particularly, the present disclosure provides advantageous systems/methods for the design and use of media patching systems that include improved features and structures (e.g., camming door; stackable cable manager members; tool-less mounting attachments; cable/fiber retention grommets; pivotable cable management arms; removable panel members; sliding label fields). Moreover, exemplary media patching systems disclosed herein advantageously provide improved access to the media connectors and/or cabling elements.
GROMMET FOR CABLE HANGER
A grommet adapted for insertion into a cable hanger includes a generally C-shaped main body formed of a polymeric material and having a longitudinal axis. Such a grommet can be securely held by a cable hanger.
CABLE MOUNTING CLAMPS
A fiber optic distribution enclosure and cable mounting clamp are provided. The enclosure includes a surface having a first bridge extended along a longitudinal direction. The cable mounting clamp including a base removably connectable to the surface. The base includes an outer body which defines an inner channel and a support ramp disposed within the inner channel. The inner channel extends along the longitudinal direction. A tong structure is connected to the base. The tong structure extends along the longitudinal direction and between the inner channel and the surface. A fork structure is slidable along the longitudinal direction and includes a pair of prongs extended along the longitudinal direction. Each prong is in sliding contact with the tong structure. Each prong forms a longitudinal face extending along the longitudinal direction and an angled face extending away from the longitudinal axis and corresponding to an angled face at the tong structure.
RETAINING DEVICES
A retaining device for retaining optical fibre cables is provided. The retaining device comprises a body member and a movable member, wherein the body member and movable member are configurable to define a plurality of channels configured to receive optical fibre cables, wherein the channels have a profile configured to restrain a longitudinal movement of the optical fibre cable received within them, wherein the movable member is selectively movable relative to the body member in order to adjust a dimension of the channels.
Patch Panel
A patch panel includes: a patch panel body, each end of which is provided respectively with a first rotation connect; two patch clamps, mounted respectively on each end of the patch panel body; and a cover panel, each end of which is provided respectively with a second rotation connect, and the second rotation connect is capable of being rotatably engaged with the first rotation connect. The patch panel is specifically an optical fiber patch panel. The patch panel with such a structure facilitates operation on the cables.
MULTI-SIDED CABLE CLAMPS
A multi-sided cable clamp for clamping drop cables to main span cables. The cable clamp has a central body and a plurality of cable holding assemblies. The plurality of cable holding assemblies are formed into or secured to a side wall of the central body. A coupling member having an eye is operatively coupled to or integrally formed into a bottom surface of the central body so that the eye can be coupled to an extendable reach tool.
Optical Cable Organization and Management System
What is disclosed is an optical fiber organization system that includes a generally planar bottom portion having a plurality of linear grooves defined thereon, the plurality of linear grooves being oriented along in parallel along a longitudinal axis. The generally planar top portion is rotatably coupled to the generally planar bottom portion, where the top portion being rotatable between a fully-open position providing access to the plurality of linear grooves and a fully-closed position adapted to securely enclose the plurality of linear grooves. Each of the plurality of linear grooves encased between the top and bottom portions is adapted to accommodate and hold a length of at least one optical fiber extending along the longitudinal axis.
