Abstract

A chain link assembly, a cable chain assembly and a mining system. The cable handler individual links may include an enclosed section for the fiber optic cable separate from other services for the machine. A flexible material or other structure may assemble the fiber optic cable in the cable handler in a manner in which it 'snakes' about the centerline to provide ample slack in the fiber optic cable to, for example, prevent over tension.
