摘要： A multi-member cable includes at least a first cable element and a second cable element. The first and second cable elements may extend in parallel, be stranded in a helical winding pattern, or be stranded in a reverse-oscillatory winding pattern, along the length of the cable. At least one binder is helically wrapped about the first and second cable elements to hold them together. The binder is formed of a material which disintegrates when exposed to a particular liquid or heat. In a preferred embodiment, the binder may be formed of polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA).

摘要： A grounding structure of an optical fiber cable that includes a sheath, a plurality of optical fibers housed in the sheath, and a first tension member and a second tension member embedded in the sheath so as to interpose the optical fibers therebetween in a radial direction includes: a conductive member that electrically connects a first extending portion of the first tension member and a second extending portion of the second tension member. The first extending portion and the second extending portion extends from an end portion of the sheath. A length of the second extending portion in a longitudinal direction of the optical fiber cable is greater than a length of the first extending portion in the longitudinal direction. The second extending portion is held by a tension member holding portion and is electrically connected to a grounding circuit.

摘要： A light launch device for transmitting light into a traceable fiber optic cable assembly with tracing optical fibers is disclosed herein. The traceable fiber optic cable assembly and light launch device provide easy tracing of the traceable fiber optic cable assembly using fiber optic tracing signals. Further, the launch connector is easily attached to and removed from the fiber optic connector with repeatable and reliable alignment of optic fibers, even when the fiber optic connector is mechanically and/or optically engaged with a network component. The fiber optic connectors are configured to efficiently illuminate an exterior of the connector for effective visibility for a user to quickly locate the fiber optic connector.
