RIGID ATTACHMENT OF OPTICAL FIBER CABLE TO ANOTHER STRUCTURE USING LASER WELDING

摘要

A conductor mounting configuration includes a conductor having a signal carrying portion, and insulative portion radially outwardly disposed of the signal carrying portion and a jacket radially outwardly disposed of the insulative portion; an intermediary material having a thickness selected to accommodate a heat based fusion to the jacket while requiring a heat load of less than that associated with damage to the conductor; and a heat fusion affixing the conductor to the intermediate material and method.
