SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF FIBER OPTIC CABLES

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a fiber optic retention device to properly accommodate for cable management arrangements and schemes in telecommunication infrastructures that are massive in scale and/or require subsequent adaptation of the infrastructures. The device includes a C-shaped opening and a spring biased door which moves inwardly to allow cable entry and exit to the device. In one embodiment, the spring is an integral extension of the door. In another embodiment, the spring is a separate torsion coil spring.

主权项

1. A cable retention device comprising:
a body defining a through-passage extending along a first axis from a first end of the body to a second end of the body, the body having an inner surface bounding the through-passage, the inner surface having a curvature along the first axis that is larger than a minimum bend radius of any optical fiber extending along the through-passage, the body also defining a slot parallel to the first axis that provides access to the through-passage from an exterior of the body; and a door moveably coupled to the body, the door being configured to move between a closed position and an open position, the door extending across the slot to close the through-passage when disposed in the closed position, the door extending into the through-passage when disposed in the open position, the door being biased to the closed position.
