ABSTRACT:
The positions of the ends of circularly disposed optical fibers of an optical fiber cable are re-arranged into a substantially linear side-by-side relationship by a device having a solid elongated body with first and second opposite end faces between which extend elongated grooves. Each groove receives only one of the optical fibers. The grooves intersect the first end face in a topological arrangement that is similar to the topological arrangement of the fibers in the cable so that the fibers in the cable can extend into the grooves without crossing each other. The grooves intersect the second end face in a substantially linear topological arrangement. The grooves extend between the first and second end faces in such a manner that they do not intersect.
