ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic cable which is preterminated in the factory. A first fiber optic cable on a reel enters a splicing (or splitting) receptacle. Some optical fibers continue through the receptacle and exit the receptacle into a second fiber optic cable, while other optical fibers in the first fiber optic cable are spliced in the receptacle to a third set of optical fibers which exit the receptacle into a third fiber optic cable such as a stub cable. A cable repair sleeve is installed over the receptacle assembly to seal and protect the completed receptacle area. The cables and receptacle are then coiled on a reel for shipment to the customer site.
