    Abstract: Indexing terminals enable rapid deployment of a distributed optical network. Each indexing terminal has a single-fiber port and a multi-fiber port. Distribution cables each have a first optical fiber that is optically coupled to the single-fiber port and other optical fibers that are optically coupled to the multi-fiber port of a respective one of the indexing terminals. Each indexing terminal shifts the fibers of the respective distribution cable over one indexed position between the two ends of the distribution cable. A connectorized end of the distribution cable is configured to be plugged into the multi-fiber port of another indexing terminal to enable daisy- chaining of the indexing terminals. Multi-service terminals may be plugged into the single-fiber ports of the indexing terminals to provide additional splitting of optical signals before providing the optical signals to subscribers.
