A glass-fiber coupler module includes a cassette mount, a mounting panel pivotally coupled to the cassette mount, a front panel coupled to the cassette mount, and a splitter coupled to the second side of the cassette mount. A first side of the cassette mount defines a storage area configured to receive spare lengths of glass fibers. The mounting panel is configured to support a first plurality of couplings. The front panel is configured to support a second plurality of couplings. The splitter is configured to receive glass fibers routed from the second end of at least one of the couplings of the first plurality, the splitter also configured to output at least two glass fibers to the first ends of at least two of the couplings of the second plurality.

Optical fiber coupler module

A device for coupling optical waveguides includes at least one element for accommodating a cartridge. The cartridge is connected to the at least one accommodating element so as to be movable relative thereto while being provided with at least one mounting element for a coupling element to which at least one of the optical waveguides and at least one other optical waveguide can be connected. The at least one accommodating element is embodied so as to accommodate only one cartridge while encompassing two guiding mechanisms which allow the at least one optical waveguide and at least one other optical waveguide to be delivered to the cartridge. The optical waveguides, which run into the at least one accommodating element from different directions, are delivered to the one cartridge via a different of the two guiding mechanisms. The optical waveguides are connected at the coupling element of the cartridge, said coupling element being disposed on the mounting element of the cartridge.

Method and device for coupling optical waveguides

The invention relates to a glass-fiber coupler module, comprising a cassette mount, which is connected to a front panel, the cassette mount being assigned a coupler, by means of which the signals of at least one incoming glass fiber are distributed over at least two outgoing glass fibers, a first group of couplings and a second group of couplings, the second group of couplings being arranged on the front panel, glass fibers from the first group of couplings being passed into the coupler and the outgoing glass fibers from the coupler being connected to the second group of couplings, the first group of couplings being arranged on a mounting panel, and the mounting panel being arranged on the cassette mount such that it can pivot.

The invention relates to a method and a device for coupling fiber optic cables. Said device comprises at least one module, which is equipped with at least one retaining unit for retaining at least two cassettes. The invention is characterized in that: a cassette is configured with at least one coupling element; at least one strand bundle can be fixed to the module, whereby said strand bundle can be split into at least two strands comprising at least one fiber optic cable; an excess length of strand can be retained by a cassette, the fiber optic cable or cables being connected to the coupling element and the cassette together with its retained strand being detachably connected to the retaining unit.

Distributor system and method for fibre optic cables

The invention relates to a glass fiber monitoring module comprising a mounting plate, couplings for receiving plugs of incoming and outgoing glass fibers and at least one coupler module being arranged on the mounting plate, couplers being arranged in the coupler module and being used to split the signals of one incoming glass fiber between at least two outgoing glass fibers at a predeterminable ratio, one outgoing glass fiber transmitting a useful signal and the other glass fiber transmitting a test signal, the glass fibers carrying the test signals being combined in the coupler module to form one multifiber cable, a splitting element being arranged at that end of the multifiber cable which is remote from the coupler module and being used to split the multifiber cable into a number of monofiber cables which corresponds to the number of fibers, plugs being arranged at the ends of said monofiber cables.
