An enclosure assembly for a cable extending in a connection direction includes a mating closure and a sealing enclosure operably coupled to the mating closure in the connection direction. Additionally, the enclosure assembly includes an end fitting operably coupled to the sealing enclosure. The end fitting includes a cable channel extending in the connection direction and is configured to receive the cable. A force applied to the cable is transmitted to the mating closure through the sealing enclosure.

End fitting for a cable with sealing protrusion and enclosure assembly with end fitting

The invention relates to an end fitting and an enclosure assembly with the end fitting, and with a sealing enclosure. In order to improve the reliability of the enclosure assembly, the invention provides that the end fitting is provided with a sealing protrusion and that a sealing section and a retention section of the sealing enclosure are arranged one behind the other in a connection direction.

A ferrule assembly comprising: (a) an array of optical fibers each having a mating end face; and (b) a ferrule with the fibers disposed therein, the ferrule having a front and rear orientation and a front surface, the front surface having at least a mating surface and a non-mating surface, the mating surface extending forward beyond the non-mating surface and presenting the mating end face of at least one of the fibers.
