Abstract
A bend radius limiter adapted for installation on a fiber guide is disclosed. In one aspect, the bend radius limiter has a main body with a generally rounded outer surface and an interior surface that defines an interior volume. The main body is also configured with a first slot opening in the generally rounded outer surface that may optionally function as a first or second connecting feature. The bend radius limiter can also include a first connecting feature configured to retain the bend radius limiter onto the fiber guide. In one embodiment, the first connecting feature is located within the interior volume and is radially aligned with the first slot opening.
