ABSTRACT:
A method and device for organizing the bight of an optical fiber and the like at a splice or slack point is provided. The method comprises laying the bight on a sheet in such a fashion that, when the sheet is wrapped about itself (and, generally, about a cylindrical core) in a spiral fashion, the radius of any bend in the fiber is greater than the minimum bending radius; and wrapping the sheet about itself (and the core). The method is suitable for both in-line and butt splices between fiber optic cables, and a ready means of encapsulation is also provided.
