ABSTRACT:
A splice organizer (56) for optical cable splices (30, 32, 42) within a splice closure assembly (1) having end walls (2, 4), supporting bars (6, 8) joining the end walls (2, 4) and bridging between the end walls (2, 4), a splice closure space (12) between the end walls (2, 4), optical cables (14, 16) entering the end walls (2, 4), corresponding optical conductors (22, 24) of the optical cables (14, 16) projecting into the splice closure space (12), optical connector bodies (30, 32) terminated to corresponding optical conductors (22, 24), and optical splices (30, 32, 42) formed by pairs of the optical connector bodies (30, 32) in axial alignment to transmit optical signals between corresponding optical conductors (24, 28) terminated to the optical connector bodies (30, 32) in axial alignment, a series of receptacles (56) for the corresponding pairs of optical conductors (22, 24), each of the receptacles (56) comprising side walls (58, 60) and a central dividing wall (62) defining first and second compartments (84, 88) for containing lengths of the optical conductors (22, 24) connected to corresponding optical splices (30, 32, 42) mounted on the receptacle (56), and mounting brackets (96) on the receptacle (56) for mounting the receptacle (56) to the supporting bars (6, 8), with the sidewalls (58, 60) of the receptacle (56) substantially parallel to the end walls (2, 4) of the splice closure assembly (1).
