Problems solved by technology

[0005] While the pull handle is fairly clean, the pre-terminated fiber optic ferrules inside the pull handle may still be prone to debris or dust as many of these components coexist in a confined space
Debris or dust can scratch the fiber and/

Embodiment Construction

[0032] Reference will now be made in detail to one or more presently preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0033] Applicants note that the term "front" or "forward" means the direction in which a fiber optic connector and / or ferrule will meet another fiber optic connector or device, whereas the use of the term "rear" or "rearward" means Refers to the direction from which the fiber enters the fiber optic ferrule, fiber optic connector, or ferrule pusher. Thus, each component will have a front and a back, and the two front or forward portions of the fiber optic ferrule will be joined to each other. Thus, in figure 1 , the "front" of the fiber assembly is located figure 1 to the left and "forward" is towards the left and out of the page. "Backward" or "rear" is the portion of the fibe...

Abstract

A cover for a fiber optic ferrule and ferrule pusher includes a bushing extending longitudinally between opposing forward and rearward ends and defining a longitudinally extending opening through the rearward end opening for receiving at least a portion of a fiber optic ferrule and ferrule pusher. The liner also includes a top side and an opposite bottom side, and two sidewalls extending between the top side and the bottom side and along at least a portion of the liner. A receiver is disposed in the top side to receive a protrusion associated with the cannula pusher.

Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to US Provisional Application No. 62 / 947,966, filed December 13, 2019 and is US Patent Serial No. 17 / 251,076, filed December 10, 2020 A continuation of part number , the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Background technique [0003] In a data center environment, fiber optic cabling between data centers typically requires connecting thousands of fibers to connect one data center building to another. This connection involves manually splicing thousands of fibers. Stitching is often the last job done before data center connectivity is complete. However, manual splicing of fibers is time-consuming and expensive due to labor costs and equipment required for the job. As a result, this work becomes a bottleneck for new data centers to come online. [0004] Solutions to avoid fusion splices include the use of pre-terminated MT sl...
