FIBER DISTRIBUTION HUBS
A fiber distribution hub includes an enclosure defining an interior region and a frame body having a longitudinal axis. The frame body is rotatably mounted within the interior region of the enclosure such that the frame body can rotate about the longitudinal axis relative to the enclosure between a first terminal angular position and a second terminal angular position. The frame body is rotatably mounted within the interior region of the enclosure also such that the entire frame body remains within the interior region as the frame body rotates between the first terminal angular position and the second terminal angular position. The fiber distribution hub also includes a splitter coupled to the frame body and having a splitter input and a splitter output.
Fiber optic splitter module
A telecommunications assembly includes a chassis and a plurality of fiber optic splitter modules mounted within the chassis. Each splitter module includes at least one fiber optic connector. Within an interior of the chassis are positioned at least one fiber optic adapter. Inserting the splitter module through a front opening of the chassis at a mounting location positions the connector of the splitter module for insertion into and mating with the adapter of the chassis. The adapters mounted within the interior of the chassis are integrally formed as part of a removable adapter assembly. A method of mounting a fiber optic splitter module within a telecommunications chassis is also disclosed.
Optical fiber pedestal box
An optical fiber pedestal box comprises a pedestal having a rail and an optical fiber box configured to mount to the pedestal. The optical fiber box is restricted in movement by at least one cable and the pedestal is configured to slide relative to the optical fiber box to accommodate cables moving because of ground heaving during freezing and thawing. The optical fiber pedestal box may be configured to receive different sizes and types of optical fiber cables.
Compact fiber optic connectors, cable assemblies and methods of making the same with alignment elements
Fiber optic connectors, cable assemblies and methods for making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the optical connector comprises a housing and a ferrule. The housing comprises a longitudinal passageway between a rear end and a front end, and, a part of the rear portion of the housing comprises a round cross-section and a part of the front portion of the housing comprises a non-round cross-section with a transition region disposed between the rear portion and the front portion.
Fiber optic cable terminal with a pushable stub cable
A fiber optic cable terminal proximally terminates a stub cable carrying one or more optical fibers. The stub cable is structurally adapted to be advanced through at least a portion of a conduit by distally pushing a distal end of the stub cable from a location that is proximal to a proximal end of the conduit and without applying any pulling force at any location that is distal to the proximal end of the conduit.
SPLICE ENCLOSURE FOR CABLE REPAIRS
The present disclosure relates to splice enclosures adapted for providing cable repairs. The splice enclosures can include a bracket arrangement that allows for variable placement of splice modules on platforms of the bracket arrangement. The bracket arrangement can also provide cable anchoring locations.
MULTI-CHANNEL PARALLEL OPTICAL COMMUNICATION MODULE AND OPTICAL TRANSCEIVER HAVING THE SAME
A multi-channel parallel optical communication module includes a casing having an airtight cavity, an optical communication assembly accommodated in the airtight cavity, and a temperature controller in thermal contact with the optical communication assembly. The optical communication assembly includes a plurality of optical communication units disposed at same level, and a number of the plurality of optical communication units is greater than four.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS ASSEMBLY
A telecommunications assembly includes a chassis defining an interior region and a tray assembly disposed in the interior region. The tray assembly includes a tray and a cable spool assembly. The cable spool assembly is engaged to a base panel of the tray. The cable spool assembly is adapted to rotate relative to the tray. The cable spool assembly includes a hub, a flange engaged to the hub and an adapter module. The flange defines a termination area. The adapter module is engaged to the termination module of the flange. The adapter module is adapted to slide relative to the flange in a direction that is generally parallel to the flange between an extended position and a retracted position.
NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE BRACKET
A network interface device bracket and a method of connecting a network device to a network via the network interface device bracket is provided. According to an example, the network interface device bracket may be adapted to be removably attached to the network interface device and removably mounted to a mounting surface. The network interface device bracket may include an internal housing that is adapted to connect a jumper cable connected to the network interface device to a drop cable connected to a service provider network and to store excess drop cable.
Aerial optical fiber distribution hub
A fiber distribution hub comprises a housing, a first side panel and a second side panel comprising one or more ports, and at least one cover disposed between the first side panel and the second side panel and forming an interior compartment. The interior compartment may include cable managers. A mounting structure aerially strand mounts the fiber distribution hub. Fiber distribution hubs comprising a first fiber distribution hub, a second fiber distribution hub configured to couple to the first fiber distribution hub, and a mounting structure configured to aerially strand mount the fiber distribution hub are also disclosed.
