ABSTRACT:
A splice holder (24) having first channels (70) having upper and lower portions (80,82) separated by a constriction (76) with each portion adapted to hold a respective single-fiber splice coupling (84) . Second channels (90) have a large diameter adapted to hold a multi-fiber mass fusion splice coupling (94) used with ribbon cable. Both the first and second channels (70,90) having constrictions along their entrances of less width than a splice coupling (84,94) to be inserted thereinto. Splice holder (24) may be adhered to a bottom wall (14) of a splice tray (10).
