ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to fibre optics and more particularly to flexible, durable, fibre optic splices, and methods of installing such splices. One embodiment of the invention comprises a fibre optic splice comprising: a flexible central tensile member; a flexible helical wrapping positioned about the flexible central tensile member; and an outer protective jacket positioned about the flexible helical wrapping. The flexible central tensile member and the flexible helical wrapping define a splice enclosure to accommodate optical fibres of the splice, at least a portion of the optical fibres being arranged in a generally helical orientation within the splice enclosure.
