ABSTRACT:
A cable clamp particularly adapted for use in connection with optical fiber cables is provided. The clamp comprises twin hermaphroditic half portions which intermate and are pivotally movable relative to each other to define two sets of clamping jaws which open and close simultaneously as a result of a scissorlike pivot connection. A locking band such as a threaded nut locks the jaws at one end of the clamp together to securely engage an optical fiber cable sheath and simultaneously to secure the optical fiber of such cable at the opposed end. Transverse slots may be disposed in the clamp body portions enabling strength members of an optical fiber cable to pass therethrough and be clamped to a clamp body portion by a locking nut surface or the like.
