ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber drop receiving device may include a housing assembly including a duct entry port for receiving a drop conduit. A drop receiving cylinder may be rotatably mounted in the housing assembly and connected to the duct entry port. The drop receiving cylinder may be configured to receive a fiber drop and a flow of pressurized air from the duct entry port. The drop receiving cylinder may include an escape port for providing an outlet for the flow of pressurized air. The flow of pressurized air through the escape port may cause the drop receiving cylinder to rotate within the housing assembly. The rotation of the drop receiving cylinder may enable winding of the received fiber drop inside the drop receiving cylinder.
