Disclosed herein are cable sealing devices having features for enhancing effective sealing, volume compensation, seal pressurization, cable size range-taking, cable installation and insert installation. Also disclosed herein is an enclosure including at least one cable sealing device.

Fiber optic cable sealing device

Disclosed herein are various cable gel seal arrangements and thermoplastic gels useful therein. The thermoplastic gels are prepared from a composition including a styrene triblock copolymer, a styrene diblock copolymer, an oil extender, and an additive selected from poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide), a C9 resin, poly(alpha-methylstyrene), a coumarone-indene resin, and combinations thereof, wherein the additive has a Tfrom about 95&#xb0; C. to about 200&#xb0; C. The thermoplastic gels advantageously exhibit low compression set.

Systems, methods, and associated components for robotic manipulation of physical objects. The physical objects include three-dimensional gripping features configured to be detected by an optics system and gripped by an end-effector of a robotic arm with sufficient gripping force to move the physical objects against the force of gravity. Sets of the physical objects can have different sizes and shapes and, in some examples, include identically constructed three-dimensional gripping features.

Methods of preparing composite dielectric materials used in lenses for communications antennas. The methods can include one or more of: using induction heating to expand expandable dielectric particles; combining expandable dielectric particles with pre-expanded dielectric material prior to expansion; and/or performing the expansion of the expandable dielectric particles within a lens or other container.

One or more seal retention clips can be used to retain a perimeter seal within a perimeter groove defined by a fiber optic enclosure housing. Certain types of seal retention clips can include portions that embed or bite into the housing of the enclosure, and/or embed or bite into the perimeter seal. In certain examples, the seal retention clip includes tabs or teeth that assist in engaging the housing and the perimeter seal. In certain examples, the seal retention clip defines a channel for receiving the perimeter seal.

Lensed antennas are provided that include a plurality of radiating elements and a lens positioned to receive electromagnetic radiation from at least one of the radiating elements, the lens comprising a composite dielectric material. The composite dielectric material comprises expandable gas-filled microspheres that are mixed with an inert binder, dielectric support materials such as foamed microspheres and particles of conductive material that are mixed together.

Aspects and techniques of the present disclosure relate to a cable sealing structure comprising a cable sealing body including a gel and methods of making anisotropic behavior in cable sealing structures made with a dry silicone gel. In one aspect, various three-dimensional printing techniques are used to make a cable sealing structure that includes a gel. The cable sealing body has a construction that elastically deforms to apply an elastic spring load to the gel. The cable sealing body has a construction with anisotropic deformation characteristics that allows the cable sealing body to be less deformable in one direction than in others. The cable sealing structure can be utilized to seal fiber optic cables more uniformly while limiting the potential of leakage.

An inspection tool for allowing visual inspection of an end face of a fiber optic ferrule. The inspection tool includes a passage for allowing a camera to view the end face. The inspection tool also includes light directing structure for first directing ferrule illumination light axially along the inspection tool, and then reflecting the axial light across the end face of the fiber optic ferrule.

A closure () protects telecommunications circuitry from water and dust. The closure () includes a base () that has a sidewall () that extends upwardly from a bottom (), and the sidewall () has at least one cable port (). The closure () also includes a cover () that attaches to the base () to close an interior () of the closure (). Further, a galvanic anode () is removably secured to the sidewall () of the base () of the closure () and electronic circuitry () is disposed within the interior () of the closure (). The electronic circuitry () is active electronic circuitry.

Corrosion resistant telecommunications enclosure

An optical connection terminal includes a first connection module and a second connection module that each terminate multi-fiber cables. The second connection module operatively couples to the first connection module so that at least one of the optical connectors of the first connection module directly optically couples with one of the optical connectors of the second connection module. A connection between the at least one optical connector of the first connection module and the optical connector of the second connection module is sealed from an exterior of the terminal.

Sealed connection terminal

An optical fiber network test device comprising an actuator that is manually operable, without manual handling of optical fibers, firstly to direct light from a light path of the optical network so that test equipment associated with the network can be operated to test the quality of the said light path, and secondly to return the light path to its previous state after completion of the test.
