ClearCurve is the end result of a Corning research project looking for products better tailored to the fiber to the home market. [6] Running since 1988 at their Sullivan Park research center in New York , Corning announced ClearCurve at a press event on 19 September 2007 and showed it publicly at the FTTH Conference later that month.
This allows the individual fibers to be terminated without splicing, and without needing a protective enclosure such as a splicebox. This is normally an option with fiber distribution cable, or sometimes loose-buffer or ribbon cable, because these types of cable contain multiple strands that are designed for a permanent termination.
The splice cassette is removable in order to assemble fiber optics with a splice unit. The front panel can also be removed to splice the fibers to various connectors. Since modern splice cassettes already contain a splice tray, a splice holder, couplings and pigtails , the installation of the cables is facilitated.
Splicing of glass fibers by thermal fusion splice. Fiber optic cable sleeve Fiber optic cable splicer. Fiber-optic cables are spliced using a special arc-splicer, with installation cables connected at their ends to respective "pigtails" - short individual fibers with fiber-optic connectors at one end. The splicer precisely adjusts the light ...
Breakout-style fiberoptic cable (also called breakout cable or fanout cable), is an optical fiber cable containing several jacketed simplex optical fibers packaged together inside an outer jacket. This differs from distribution-style cable , in which tight-buffered fibers are bundled together, with only the outer cable jacket of the cable ...
