Abstract
Coupler packages for providing protection against the elements for fused fiber couplings. The coupler package has an inner and outer cylinder for providing additional buffering against vibration, temperature expansion, corrosion, and water penetration. The double tube structure increases the penetration length for water, while the seals decrease the cross section for water penetration.
