Patent number: 9274286Abstract: A fiber optic stub fiber connector for reversibly and nondestructively terminating an inserted field fiber having a buffer over at least a portion thereof. The connector includes a housing and a ferrule including a stub fiber disposed within and extending from a bore through the ferrule. The ferrule is generally at least partially disposed within and supported by the housing. The connector further includes a reversible actuator for reversibly and nondestructively terminating the inserted field fiber to the stub fiber. The reversible actuator includes a buffer clamp for engaging with the buffer to simultaneously provide reversible and nondestructive strain relief to the terminated field fiber.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2014Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: Panduit Corp.Inventors: Jack E. Caveney, Shaun P. Brouwer, Vincent M. Barone, Scott R. Hartman, Andrew J. Stroede
