US Patent 11703651 Cable termination assembly with disengagement prevention structures

An optical fiber termination system includes a housing, a cable, and a catch. The housing defines a portion of a passageway and a surface surrounding the passageway. The passageway defines a central axis and the surface defines an interior of the housing. The cable is receivable through the portion of the passageway. The cable includes an optical fiber and defines a longitudinal axis. The catch is receivable in the housing and attachable to and extendable from the cable in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis such that the catch limits movement of the cable in a direction away from the interior of the housing when the catch is received in the housing and the cable is received through the portion of the first passageway.
