A cable is provided having an expansion joint. The cable includes a cable jacket which makes up an outer layer of the cable, a non-end section where the cable jacket is removed from the cable which forms an opening, and an expansion joint which covers the opening and is bonded to the cable jacket at opposite sides of the opening. The expansion joint is made up of a flexible or compressible material.

A ferrule structure including a ferrule having an end face shape configured to incorporate at least a portion of a lens attached to an end of an optical fiber. The end face includes a cavity in which a circumference of the cavity is equal to or less than the outer diameter of the ferrule and larger than in inner diameter of an opening in the ferrule housing an optical fiber.

Ferrule structure and assembly for lens terminated fiber

The fiber optics patch panel assembly includes a pair of patch panels each having a base and a pair of first sides. A wall attachment portion is disposed on the base of each panel, and a mounting portion disposed on each of the first sides of each of the panels. A rack mounting bracket is attached to the mounting portion of one of the first sides of each of the panels. A panel attachment is attached to the mounting portion of an other of the first sides of each of the panels and attaches the panels to one another. A single panel can be wall-mounted, or rack mounted in a standard rack mount assembly using two panels and the rack mounting bracket, or mounted in a half-sized custom rack without needing any modifications.
