Description

ABSTRACT:
A splice casing assembly for an elongated splice housing assembly and associated fiber optic cables includes a mounting insert disposed within a substantially tubular casing. A particularized mounting insert is characterized by a rectangular platform portion for supporting the splice housing assembly and by disklike end portions for positioning the insert within the tubular casing. Each of a pair of casing plugs comprises a threaded portion for fastening the plug at an end of the tubular casing and a tapered portion into which a fiber optic connector is threaded. Each of the connectors, a pair are included, comprises a threaded portion, a hexagonal gripping portion, a major cylindrical portion, and a minor cylindrical portion disposed between the hexagonal gripping portion and the major cylindrical portion. The casing assembly is configured so that fiber optic cables, supported by the connectors, may be routed through the connector, through the plug casings and into the splice housing assembly.
