A fiber optic distribution enclosure and cable mounting clamp are provided. The enclosure includes a surface having a first bridge extended along a longitudinal direction. The cable mounting clamp including a base removably connectable to the surface. The base includes an outer body which defines an inner channel and a support ramp disposed within the inner channel. The inner channel extends along the longitudinal direction. A tong structure is connected to the base. The tong structure extends along the longitudinal direction and between the inner channel and the surface. A fork structure is slidable along the longitudinal direction and includes a pair of prongs extended along the longitudinal direction. Each prong is in sliding contact with the tong structure. Each prong forms a longitudinal face extending along the longitudinal direction and an angled face extending away from the longitudinal axis and corresponding to an angled face at the tong structure.

Cable mounting clamps

An optical fiber cable including an optical fiber ribbon in a pipe, wherein the ribbon includes at least two optical fibers arranged side by side, and wherein at least two of the optical fibers are bonded intermittently along a length of the fibers.

Round and small diameter optical cables with a ribbon-like optical fiber structure

A fiber optic distribution cable includes a central inner jacket formed from one of a polyvinyl chloride or a low smoke zero halogen material, a plurality of optical fibers disposed within the inner jacket, and a plurality of first strength members disposed within the inner jacket. The fiber optic distribution cable further includes an outer jacket surrounding the central inner jacket, the outer jacket formed from the one of the polyvinyl chloride or the low smoke zero halogen material, and a plurality of second strength members disposed between the outer jacket and the central inner jacket. A fiber density of the cable is greater than 0.65 fibers per square millimeter.

Reduced diameter ruggedized fiber optic distribution cables

A downhole cable includes a central core. The central core includes a metal tube having a plurality of optical fibers therein or a copper wire. The downhole cable further includes an extruded aluminum tube surrounding the central core.

Downhole cables having extruded aluminum encapsulation layers

Fiber pistoning apparatus and methods of use are provided. A fiber anti-pistoning apparatus includes an axial centerline, and an elongate main body that at least partially surrounds the axial centerline and extends from a first end to a second end of the elongate main body. The elongate main body defines a channel that extends along the axial centerline for housing a bundle of fibers. The channel extends between a first opening at the first end, a second opening at the second end, and a slotted opening between the first end and the second end for receiving the bundle of fibers. The elongate main body includes one or more retention features for coupling to a first buffer tube.

Fiber pistoning solution

An optical fiber cable including an optical fiber ribbon in is pipe, wherein the ribbon includes at least two optical fibers arranged side by side, and wherein at least two of the optical fibers are bonded intermittently along a length of the fibers.

A network interface device includes a housing. The housing includes a base and a cover, the cover connected to the base and movable relative to the base between an open position and a closed position. The network interface device further includes an insert removably connectable to the base. The insert includes a base plate, and an adapter plate extending from the base plate and defining a subscriber section of the insert and a provider section of the insert. The subscriber section and provider section are opposite each other relative to the adapter plate. The adapter plate defines one or more adapter apertures extending therethrough. The insert further includes an organizer arm which includes a support member, an upper portion extending from the support member, and a lower portion extending from the support member opposite the upper portion.

Network interface devices

An optical connection terminal assembly for a fiber optic communications network includes an optical connection terminal. The terminal includes a base, the base including an exterior wall, and a cover connected to the base wherein an interior cavity is defined between the base and the cover. The terminal further includes an all-dielectric self-supporting ('ADSS') cable port defined in the cover, and a plurality of connector ports defined in the exterior wall of the base. The terminal assembly further includes an ADSS cable connector including a main body and a connector body, the ADSS cable connector positionable such that the connector body extends through the ADSS cable port into the interior cavity. The terminal assembly further includes an ADSS cable connected to the cable connector, wherein optical fibers of the ADSS cable extend through the ADSS cable connector and through the ADSS cable port into the interior cavity.
