  • Publication number: 20210271033
    Abstract: Fiber optic cable assemblies are provided that comprise a fiber optic cable, a fiber optic connector installed on at least one of the fiber optic cable, and a boot that is molded over portions of the fiber optic connector and fiber optic cable. A tube is used to prevent material of the boot from entering space that exists between a connector body of the fiber optic connector and an end of a jacket of the fiber optic cable. Methods of forming the fiber optic cable assemblies are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9323020
    Abstract: A fiber optic terminal configured to optically connect optical fibers from received network-side and subscriber-side fiber(s) to facilitate providing direct or intermediate optical connections between a fiber optic network and a destination. The fiber optic terminal includes at least one adapter module comprising at least one adapter panel. The adapter panel is configured to receive both an input fiber and one or more of a plurality of output fibers from an optical splitter. To establish optical connections between the network-side and subscriber-side fiber(s), the input fiber from the optical splitter is optically connected to an input fiber optic adapter on the adapter panel, which is optically connected to the at least one network-side fiber. One or more of the plurality of output fibers from the optical splitter are optically connected to one or more output fiber optic adapters on the adapter panel, which are optically connected to the subscriber-side fibers.

  • Patent number: 8467651
    Abstract: Fiber optic terminals and methods for establishing optical connections are disclosed. In one embodiment, a fiber optic terminal is provided that includes a base defining an interior chamber. The fiber optic terminal includes a terminal cover configured to close onto the base. A plurality of fiber routing guides are disposed in the base defining an optical fiber perimeter in the interior chamber. At least one fiber optic connection panel is disposed in the fiber optic terminal for establishing optical connections. The fiber optic connection panel is disposed on the internal surface of the terminal cover such that when the terminal cover is closed, the fiber optic connection panel is disposed within the optical fiber perimeter. In this manner, routing of optical fibers around the optical fiber perimeter provides space for disposing the fiber optic connection panel in the fiber optic terminal when the terminal cover is closed.
