A method and a device for ensuring the required tensile strength across a joint (1), when jointing submarine cables (2, 3). The submarine cable (2, 3) comprises two or more cable cores (21, 31,) and, for mechanical protection and the necessary tensile strength, a plurality of armour wires. A first means (23) is connected to the armouring of the cable (2) on a first side of the joint (1), and a second means (33) is connected to the armouring of the cable (3) on a second side of the joint (1). The first means (23) and the second means (33) are interconnected by an elongated flexible member (33) are interconnected by an elongated flexible member (4). The first means (23), the second means (33) and the elongated flexible member (4) are fully, or essentially fully, placed within a space defined by a cross section at the joint (1) equal to the cross section of the cable (2, 3) itself. The first and second means (23, 33) are provided with holes or recesses (4a, 4b) for the elongated flexible member. |
