Traceable fiber optic cable assembly with fiber guide and tracing optical fibers for carrying light received from a light launch device
Abstract:
A cable tracing system includes a fiber optic connector with a connector fiber guide. The connector fiber guide includes a planar surface, a launch opening defined in the planar surface, and at least one alignment surface proximate the planar surface. The connector also includes a tracing optical fiber with a first launch end positioned within the launch opening of the fiber guide. The tracing optical fiber is accessible from an exterior of the housing for receiving an optical tracing signal from a launch optical fiber. The alignment surface is configured to axially align the launch optical fiber with the first tracing optical fiber.
