Abstract
A means and method for routing and managing buffered tube type fiber optical cable, particularly outside plant cable to an optical fiber cabinet or similar structure. The disclosure describes novel clamping elements engaging the outside plant cable which serve to separate the contained optical fibers for guidance in individual paths to a point of connection, and provide a mounting point at the clamping elements prior to separation. The clamping elements are transparent, enabling inspection and identification of individual fiber circuits.
