Abstract
A method for producing a holding configuration for at least one sheathed optical fiber conductor, which includes forming a holding body with a through-channel having a first channel section expanded over an expansion region into a second channel section opening into an outlet opening having a rounded rim. The method further includes applying a fixing compound from the outlet opening into the expansion region for fixing a section of an optical fiber conductor introduced into the first channel section, dimensioning a width of the first channel section for exerting capillary forces on the fixing compound contributing to filling a gap between the optical fiber conductor and the first channel section, and dimensioning a width of the second channel section for maintaining the fixing compound in the second channel section free of capillary forces, and metering the fixing compound for permitting the optical fiber conductor to emerge through the outlet opening with radial freedom of movement and free of fixing compound.
