<p>A cable loop device (100) is provided for use in optical systems for storing, routing and distributing optical cables and fibre within optical networks, optical hardware and optical joints thereof. The cable loop device (100) includes one or more work areas (106), one or more fibre storage areas (102), a plurality of guide tracks (120a-120c), and at least one cable storage area (11O), where the at least one cable storage area (110) is disposed on the periphery of the cable loop device (100) for looping optical cable and the fibre guide tracks (120a, 120b) connect the cable storage (110), fibre storage (102) and work (106) areas together. A routing device (300) is provided for use with the cable loop device (100) for routing optical fibre from the routing device (100) through to a third portion of guide tracks (120c) disposed through the cable loop device (100) for splicing to fibres therein. A method for looping optical cable and routing a portion of optical fibre therein is provided for use with the cable loop device (100).</p> |
