Application: Optical distribution system and related methods (Patent ID: US20240210645A1)
The patent filed by Corning Inc. describes an optical distribution system for connecting multiple buildings within a network using a high fiber-count backbone cable that branches out to serve different locations. The system includes an enclosure, tether cables connected to the backbone cable within the enclosure, and multiport terminals for connecting auxiliary cables to the buildings. The system allows for efficient distribution of optical fibers to multiple locations, with specific requirements for the number of fibers, connection ports, and terminals to ensure effective connectivity.
The claims detail specific configurations and limitations of the optical distribution system, including the number of optical fibers, connection ports, and multiport terminals required for different scenarios. The system can be implemented in various types of enclosures, such as splice enclosures or patch enclosures, to manage fusion splices or mated connections between fibers. Additionally, the method outlined in the patent describes the installation and operation of the optical distribution system, including connecting buildings to the network using auxiliary cables pre-terminated with outdoor optical connectors. Overall, the patent provides a comprehensive solution for efficiently distributing optical fibers within a network to connect multiple buildings while maintaining a sealed and organized interface.
