Abstract
Disclosed is a fiber cable terminal which comprises a cable assembly, a cable fixing portion and a thermal shrinkable tube. The cable assembly includes: an inner sheath through 5 which the fiber can pass; and a protection layer provided outside of the inner sheath. The cable fixing portion includes: an insertion portion to be inserted between the protection layer and the inner sheath; and a fixing portion connected with the insertion portion and positioned outside of the protection layer. The thermal shrinkable tube wraps a part of the fixing portion and a part of the protection layer and fixes the cable fixing portion and the 10 cable assembly together. All the members of the fiber cable terminal are pre-assembled into a sealed one-piece, the sealing performance between the cable fixing portion and the protecting layer is thus improved. The fiber cable terminal is mated with the through hole of the supporting body to improve the sealing performance between the fiber cable terminal and the supporting body.
