Title:
MID-SPAN CLAMP FOR AERIAL FIBER OPTICAL CABLE SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/132176
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A mid-span optical fiber cable support system is provided. The system includes a mid-span clamp system engaging a main span cable to support a mid-span later drop cable run. The mid-span clamping system includes a main span cable clamp engaging the main span cable, and a drop cable clamp engaging the drop cable. The drop cable clamp is supported from the main span cable such that the second portion of the drop cable extends away from the main span cable such that a load applied by the drop cable at the drop cable clamp is substantially perpendicular to the preferential bend axis of the main span cable. In addition, the main span cable clamp includes a bend strain reducing curved surface.
