ABSTRACT:
A device for joining an underwater optical fiber cable and a repeater comprising a fiber feed-in cable, the end of said underwater cable being secured in a jointing block by means of a tapered ferrule and hard-setting resin filler, said device comprising a slack chamber for storing surplus lengths of optical fiber, said slack chamber interior being bounded on the underwater-cable-side by a storage canister having a bulged internal wall the radius of curvature whereof is everywhere greater than or equal to the minimum acceptable radius of curvature for the optical fibers, and on the fiber-feed-cable-side by a plug having a conical internal surface. Device is mainly applicable to the joining of undersea telecommunications cables.
