ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system for field restoration of severed fiber optic cables containing multiple optical fiber conductors therein. The system includes two hermetically sealable restoration connector containers having lids to permit access to the interior thereof. The containers are interconnected by at least one fiber optic cable containing multiple optical fibers extending therein with each fiber of the cable terminated by respective fiber optic connectors which are mounted on adapters in a panel in the respective containers for interconnection to temporary connectors used in field restoration. A plurality of temporary connectors are arranged within the respective containers and each container includes a hermetically sealable opening for passing a severed cable with the fiber ends extending therefrom into the container or by the individual fibers can be rapidly terminated by the temporary connectors and the ends projecting from the temporary connectors flush cleave with the end face thereof. The temporary connectors can then be interconnected to the adapters on the panel to is corresponding permanent connector and fiber connecting to the other restoration container.
