Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides an optical fiber cable fixing mechanism and method for easy, rapid, and precise installation of an optical fiber in a field-fabricated optical fiber connector without the need for external installation equipment. The optical fiber fixing mechanism comprises a back post, a press ring, and a boot. The back post comprises at least an interior passage allowing the pass-through of the buffered section of the optical fiber cable there within; and at least one clamping latch. When the clamping latch is pressed towards the interior passage of the back post, it clamps on to the optical fiber cable laid there within. The press ring is for hooping around the back post and pressing on the clamping latch. The boot is for securing the press ring around the back post.
