ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for making a termination between (a) a fiber optic cable having a centrally positioned optical fiber, a plurality of reinforcement strands positioned about the optical fiber, and a jacket positioned about the reinforcement strands; with (b) an electro-optic component housing having a tubular extension. In accordance with the method of this invention, in the initial step a predetermined length of the outer jacket is removed from the fiber optic cable to expose a length of optical fiber and reinforcement strands. The optical fiber is then inserted into and through a passage in the tubular extension to a point within the component housing and preferably fixed in place. The reinforcement strands are then positioned about the outer diameter surface of the tubular extension so that portions of the outer diameter of the tubular extension are covered with the reinforcement strands and other areas are left exposed. Then an adhesive is placed over the strands, the exposed areas of the tubular extension, and a portion of the jacket remaining on the fiber optic cable. A heat-shrinkable tubing is then positioned over the adhesive. The tubing is then heated causing it to shrink and make adhesive connection of the exposed area of the tubular member, the reinforcement strands, the jacket of the cable, and the heat-shrink tubing.
