ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic package in which a plurality of fiber optic cables are encapsulated in a layer of flexible material which in turn is bonded to the surface of a low mass, low profile, apertured stiffener member. A portion of the encapsulating material extends beyond the edge of the stiffener and is configured into a plurality of tongues that encapsulate individual ones of the fiber optic cables. The stiffener member is fastened to an apertured backplane. Fittings on the ends of the fiber optic cables extend through the clearance apertures in the stiffener member and the backplane to feed the fiber optic cable to the front face of the backplane for coupling to an associated optical component.
