Abstract
First and second tube sections (12, 14) are dimensioned so as to enable telescoping receipt of an end portion of one within the other. A pair of parallel slots (36) in the end portion of the second tube section (14) is slidingly received onto a break pin (28) transversely secured within the first tube section (12). A further break pin (38) is transversely secured within the end portion of the second tube section (14). An optical fiber cable (17) passes through the tube sections and between the break pins (28,38) such that on the tube sections being axially separated, the fiber cable conforms about the break pins in relatively small radii severing the fiber cable.
