Abstract

An optical fiber unit assembly package consists of a protective body having a lid and defining a volume, an entry for an optical fiber cable penetrating the body, at least one optical fiber cable extending through the entry and defining a conduit for an optical fiber cable. An anchor for an optical fiber cable is disposed within the entry as is a clamp for an optical fiber extending through the conduit within the package in a manner to isolate an internal optical fiber unit assembly within the volume from tensile forces applied externally upon the fiber. Secure mounting for optical fiber units within the volume are also provided.
