ABSTRACT:
A joint, and a method for forming such joint, between two optical fiber cables or cores having closed-helix grooves each loosely receiving at least one optical fiber. A cylindrical body having open-helix grooves is interposed between the two cores so that the latter grooves interconnect corresponding grooves of the cores. The ends of the optical fibers are joined, and the fibers are then placed in the grooves of the cylindrical body.
