ABSTRACT:
Described is a furcation kit for a multiple optical fiber cable. The cable end is secured by a mechanical compression fitting and optical fibers are routed into one or more plugs each having a plurality of single optical fiber passages. A protective shell is mechanically secured around the area of furcation. The kit eliminates the need for epoxies, and capsulants, and thereby decreases the time needed for installation of the furcations.
