The ferrule base is configured to fasten the optical cable, and the ferrule is connected to an optical fiber that is of the optical cable and that is inserted into the ferrule base. In this way, the optical fiber can be connected to the communications device by using the ferrule. The outdoor component includes: a spindle that is sleeved on the ferrule base and that is fastened to the ferrule base; and a handle sleeve sleeved on the spindle.
