ABSTRACT:
The backshell construction is identical for use with either a plug or receptacle fiber optics connector part and includes a short mounting sleeve threaded onto the rear of the connector part with a central bore facing outwardly of the connector and a central axis aligned with the logitudinal axis of the connector part. A second mounting sleeve fits into the end of a clamp which is received on the optical fiber cable. One or more fiber optics from the cable extend between the first and second mounting sleeve means and through a cylindrical extension tube. A sufficient length of the optical fibers are coiled or loosely curved within the extension tube to provide the desired strain relief, as well as storage of a sufficient length for retermination, if needed.
