ABSTRACT:
A spool for receiving windings of elongated material, such as connectorized lightguide cable, is made of compressive and resilient material and has a flange on each end of a hub portion. Each flange has inner and outer rims of differing diameter and a clearance therebetween for forming a channel to hold a connector that terminates an end of the cable. The channel communicates with the surface of the hub via a flared groove for passing the cable ends from hub to channel. The spool is assembled by intermeshing two identical segments.
