Abstract: Attachment bodies, optical cable assemblies, and methods for fabricating optical cable assemblies for mating with compact multiports or terminals are disclosed. In one embodiment, an attachment body includes a body defining a passageway therein. The body includes a cable insertion portion, wherein the cable insertion portion is round and defines a cable insertion face having a first area, a cable securing portion adjacent to the cable insertion portion, and a port insertion portion adjacent to the cable securing portion. The port insertion portion includes a distal end that is non-round. The distal end defines a port insertion face having a second area that is smaller than the first area.
