Assignee:

OFS Fitel, LLC - Norcross GA

International Classification:

G02B 6/00

US Classification:

385136, 385147

Abstract:

A strain relief for distributing strain along an outer surface of an optical fiber cable is disclosed. The strain relief is shaped to surround and tangentially grip the cable via friction between the outer surface of the cable and an inner surface of the strain relief.
