Abstract:
A fiber optic cable assembly including a mid-span access location, a cable having at least fiber therein, and a tether in optical communication with the at least one fiber of the cable. The access location and portions of the cables are substantially encapsulated within a flexible body having dimensions sufficient to accommodate the optical splitter therein. A method for making a fiber optic cable assembly including an access location, distribution cable, tether and optical splitter maintained within a flexible overmolded body while providing an assembly having a relatively small cross-sectional diameter.
