Abstract:
Un dispositivo de telecomunicaciones de fibra óptica incluye un bastidor para montar una pluralidad de armazones, incluyendo cada armazón una pluralidad de bandejas montadas de forma deslizable sobre el mismo y dispuestas en una disposición apilada en sentido vertical. Cada bandeja incluye unas ubicaciones de conexión de fibra óptica y una parte de gestión de cables que está acoplada con la bandeja y también acoplada con el armazón, la parte de gestión de cables para enrutar cables hasta y desde las ubicaciones de conexión de fibra óptica y definiendo una pluralidad de brazos articulados que están conectados de forma pivotante de tal modo que la parte de gestión se retrae y se extiende con un movimiento correspondiente de la bandeja, en donde los brazos articulados pivotan uno en relación con otro para evitar que los cables que se gestionan en los mismos se doblen en un arco que tenga un radio de curvatura menor que un valor previamente determinado, definiendo cada brazo articulado una pared superior, una pared inferior, y dos paredes laterales ubicadas de forma opuesta, definiendo cada brazo articulado una porción abierta a lo largo de por lo menos una de las paredes laterales y una porción abierta a lo largo de la pared superior para recibir cables en el mismo, comunicándose una con otra las porciones abiertas a lo largo de la pared superior y la por lo menos una de las paredes laterales.
Abstract:
A splice cassette includes a base and a cover. The base includes an outer channel and an inner storage region separated by a spool wall. The cover is configured to mount to the base to enclose the inner storage region. The outer channel extends radially outwardly from a perimeter of the cover. The cover includes guide spools and a chip receiving arrangement disposed on an inwardly- facing surface that faces the base when the cover mounts to the base. The splice chip remains on the cover when the cover is removed from the base.

Abstract:
A fiber optic connector and fiber optic cable assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a fiber optic cable having a plurality of optical fibers. The assembly also includes a connector body, a multi-fiber ferrule and a protective housing. The fiber optic cable is anchored to a proximal end of the connector body and the multi-fiber ferrule is mounted at a distal end of the connector body. The multi-fiber ferrule supports end portions of optical fibers of the optical fiber cable. The protective housing mounts over the connector body. A dimensionally recoverable sleeve prevents contaminants from entering the protective housing through a proximal end of the protective housing. A dust cap and sealing member prevent contaminants from entering the protective housing through a distal end of the protective housing.

Abstract:
A multi-fiber cable assembly includes an optical connector and a cable. The optical connector includes a connector body; an optical ferrule body, and alignment elements. The optical ferrule body has an end face defining a plurality of alignment openings arranged in rows and has a plurality of buckling chambers. Each buckling chamber is aligned with one of the rows of the alignment openings. The optical fibers of the cable have bare portions secured at a first end of the optical ferrule body using rigid epoxy. Each of the optical fibers is routed through one of the buckling chambers to one of the alignment holes.
Abstract:
Optical connector arrangements terminate at least seventy-two optical fibers. The optical connector arrangements include multiple optical ferrules that each terminates multiple optical fibers. Some example optical connectors can terminate about 144 optical fibers. Each optical connector includes a fiber take-up arrangement and a flange extending outwardly from a connector housing arrangement. The fiber take-up arrangement manages excess length of the optical fibers. A threadable coupling nut can be disposed on the connector housing arrangement to engage the outwardly extending flange. Certain types of optical connector arrangements include furcation cables spacing the connector housing arrangement form the fiber take-up arrangement.
Abstract:
A fiber optic telecommunications device includes a rack for mounting a plurality of chassis, each chassis including a plurality of trays slidably mounted thereon and arranged in a vertically stacked arrangement. Each tray includes fiber optic connection locations and a cable manager coupled to the tray and also coupled to the chassis, the cable manager for routing cables to and from the fiber optic connection locations and defining a plurality of link arms pivotally connected such that the manager retracts and extends with a corresponding movement of the tray, wherein the link arms pivot relative to each other to prevent cables managed therein from being bent in an arc having a radius of curvature less than a predetermined value, each link arm defining a top wall, a bottom wall, and two oppositely positioned sidewalls, each link arm defining an open portion along at least one of the sidewalls and an open portion along the top wall for receiving cables therein, the open portions along the top wall and the at least one of the sidewalls communicating with each other.
