A crosstalk measurement device (1) is characterized by comprising: a first optical switch (61) capable of selectively switching to any one of a plurality of optical waveguides; a connection optical waveguide for optically connecting the other end (18) of one optical waveguide and the other end (18) of another one optical waveguide among the plurality of optical waveguides; an OTDR (20) that is optically connected to one end of the one optical waveguide via the first optical switch (61), causes light to enter the one optical waveguide from one end (17) thereof as incoming light, and measures the power of light emitted from the one end of the one optical waveguide, the emitted light including crosstalk light (CL1) generated through crosstalk of the incoming light between the one optical waveguide and the other one optical waveguide; and a processing unit (25) for determining crosstalk between the one optical waveguide and the other one optical waveguide by using the measured power of the emitted light.
A cable accommodating body includes one or more cable bundles made of a wound cable and not having any winding core and one or more first containers accommodating the one or more cable bundles and having a first outlet and a second outlet through each of which the wound cable is pulled out from an inside of the one or more first containers.

A fiber optic closure is provided, including a base insertable at least partially into the interior of the closure. A bracket assembly includes a plurality of hinge assemblies along a transverse axis. A connector shaft connects an organizer assembly and the base together. The organizer assembly includes a main body extending between a front and a rear, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall. The main body includes a base panel extending between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and from the front to the rear. An upper retention tab extends from one or more of the first sidewall, the second sidewall, or a front wall of the main body. A lower retention tab extends from one or more walls and is positioned proximate along a transverse axis to the base panel relative to the upper retention tab.
A fiber optic closure is provided including an organizer tray and a mount platform. The organizer tray includes a tray main body including a base wall including a plurality of module mounting locations including a plurality of leg slots and one or more positioning slots defined through the base wall. The mount platform includes a platform base and a platform leg extending from the platform base. The platform base forms a wall configured substantially flush to the base wall. The platform leg is insertable into corresponding leg slots at the mount location. The mount platform includes a retainer wall extending along the transverse axis from an upper surface of the platform base. The retainer wall extends along a first direction to form a detent for a telecommunications module mountable to the organizer tray. The detent is along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
This optical connector comprises: a plurality of optical fibers; a ferrule having a plurality of fiber holes through which the plurality of optical fibers are inserted, two positioning holes, and a connection end surface in which the plurality of fiber holes and the two positioning holes are opened; and a housing for holding the ferrule. The connection end surface is inclined with respect to a virtual plane perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the plurality of fiber holes when viewed from a juxtaposing direction in which the two positioning holes are arranged. The housing has a housing-side contact surface, and the ferrule has a ferrule-side contact surface that limits the amount of protrusion of the ferrule from the housing by coming into contact with the housing-side contact surface. In a state in which the housing-side contact surface and the ferrule-side contact surface are in contact with each other, the ferrule is swingable about a swing center axis with respect to the housing. The swing center axis is located at a position at which the housing-side contact surface and the ferrule-side contact surface are in contact with each other, and extends in an orthogonal direction that is orthogonal to both the longitudinal direction and the juxtaposing direction.
An optical cable structure includes connector-equipped optical fibers, derived from an end portion of a sheath of an optical cable, that are accommodated in a tubular member. Each of the connector-equipped optical fibers includes a derivation optical fiber from the end portion of the sheath and an optical connector disposed at a distal portion of the derivation optical fiber. Lengths of at least some of the derivation optical fibers are different from each other. Each of the derivation optical fibers includes a proximal-side optical fiber on an end portion side of the sheath, a distal-side optical fiber on an optical connector side, and a connecting portion connecting the proximal-side optical fiber to the distal-side optical fiber. The connecting portions are disposed in the tubular member when the connector-equipped optical fibers are accommodated in the tubular member.
An aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a connector collar for a fiber optic closure. The connector collar is insertable into a cavity at a base of the fiber optic closure. The connector collar includes a shaft extending along a longitudinal axis, the shaft forming a passage extending from a first end and a second end. The passage is configured to receive an optical ground wire (OPGW) cable therethrough. The shaft forms a plurality of flanges extending outward along a radial axis to inhibit movement of the collar within the base along the longitudinal axis. The shaft forms a groove configured to position the connector collar relative to the base of the fiber optic closure.
