20100310221 | MODULAR SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION NETWORK TO A USER NETWORK OF A BUILDING - A modular system for the connection of an external communication network to a user network of a building includes: at least one user module including: i) at least one passage opening of a connection cable of the user network including a plurality of optical fibres associated with respective users and ii) a plurality of adapters associated with respective optical fibres of the connection cable of the user network, and at least one operator module including: i) at least one inlet opening of at least one connection cable to the external communication network including a plurality of optical fibres and ii) at least one outlet opening of a plurality of fibre optic connection elements connected to the external communication network and provided with a connector at a terminal end thereof. The user module and the operator module are structurally independent from each other and the external communication network is operatively associated with the user network by means of a connection of the connectors of the fibre optic connection elements with respective selected adapters of the user module. | 12-09-2010 |
20110010944 | TOOL FOR ACCESS TO OPTICAL FIBRES - A tool for access to optical fibres contained within a cable includes: a body having a longitudinal recess along a longitudinal axis, conceived to partially contain a section of cable; and a blade having a cutting edge fixed transversally inside the recess set at a predetermined slant in relation to the longitudinal axis of the recess. | 01-20-2011 |
20110081121 | METHOD OF CONNECTING USER DEVICES TO OPTICAL FIBRE UNITS CONTAINED IN AN OPTICAL CABLE - A method for connecting user devices to optical fiber units contained in an optical cable includes: providing an opening in a sheath of the optical cable to access the optical fiber units contained in the optical cable; extracting a segment of at least one optical fiber unit from the optical cable through the opening; inserting a free end of the extracted segment of optical fiber unit into a protection tube; making the protection tube slide on the extracted segment of optical fiber unit to insert an end portion of the protection tube, distal from the free end of the extract segment of the optical fiber unit, into the optical cable through the opening; positioning a closure element on the optical cable in correspondence of the opening so as to substantially realize a closure thereof; securing in a removable way the closure element to the optical cable and bringing the free end of the extracted segment of optical fiber unit in correspondence of a connection point of a user device. | 04-07-2011 |
20110249949 | ASSEMBLY FOR INSTALLING AN OPTICAL ACCESS NETWORK - An assembly for installing an optical access network includes at least one in-line optical cable and a drop cable. The assembly includes a duct suitable for housing the at least one in-line optical cable and an optical transition box for snaking an optical connection between the at least one in-line optical cable and the drop cable. The duct has a window. The optical transition box has a base with two sidewalls. Each of the two sidewalls has a first opening allowing the in-line optical cable to enter and exit the base. The base is suitable for being partially inserted in the duct through the window in such a way that, when the base is partially inserted in the duct, the first opening is contained within the duct. | 10-13-2011 |
20120080651 | METHOD FOR INSTALLING AN OPTICAL FIBRE UNIT IN A TUBE - A method for installing an optical fibre unit in a protective tube housing a pulling rope includes the steps of: providing a mini tube having a longitudinal opening from end to end; transversally inserting a portion of the pulling rope in the longitudinal opening; contacting the pulling rope and optical fibre unit over a predetermined length; slipping the mini tube over at least a portion of the contacting length of the pulling rope and optical fibre unit; crimping the mini tube around the pulling rope and optical fibre unit; and drawing the optical fibre unit through the protective tube by pulling the pulling rope. | 04-05-2012 |
20120301092 | MICROBUNDLE OPTICAL CABLE - A microbundle optical cable such as, a riser cable, includes an outer jacket and a plurality of microbundles housed in the outer jacket. At least one of the microbundles includes an optical fiber ribbon enclosed in a microbundle coating. The at least one microbundle includes a longitudinal axis and a cross-section taken on a plane substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The cross-section may include a first dimension and a second dimension. The first dimension is higher than the second dimension. Therefore, the cross-section shape is an elongated cross shape. | 11-29-2012 |
