Description

Optical cable node connecting device
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of optical cables, and particularly relates to an optical cable node connecting device.
Background
The information disclosed in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the application and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.
Fiber To The Home (FTTH) is a transmission method for optical fiber communication. In particular, FTTH refers to installing an Optical Network Unit (ONU) at a home subscriber or an enterprise subscriber. Similar to the "hand-over distribution" of communications all-plastic telephone cables, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) Optical Distribution Networks (ODNs) are divided into a trunk cable subsystem, a distribution cable subsystem, and a drop cable termination subsystem. The trunk optical cable subsystem refers to an optical cable distribution system connected between the subscriber optical cable cross-connect boxes from the office optical distribution rack ODF connected to the optical fiber access device OLT. In the optical fiber distribution equipment at the two ends, the optical cables are formed into ends in a hot melting mode, and the optical cables are in jumper connection with each other through optical cable tail fibers. The distribution cable subsystem refers to the fiber optic cable from the optical distribution box to the "fiber drop box" within the customer's building. This is an optical distribution panel where the input and output cables are directly connected "back-to-back", typically with the splitter equipment also disposed therein. The optical splitter is an optical fiber multiplexing device for multiplexing channels of a core optical cable into multiple channels, and the general branching ratio is 1:16;1:32 and 1: 64. The optical splitters (OBD) can be considered to be of different types according to the placed positions, and mainly comprise a box type fiber-out optical splitter, a tray type optical splitter and a plug-in type end-forming optical splitter; the types of the optical cable tail fiber plugs are SC-type square-head optical fiber plugs.
In the prior art, the beam splitter is generally installed in a tapping box, and the tapping box generally has the functions of dust prevention and water prevention. Before the optical cable is welded with the optical cable tail fiber, the tapping box needs to be opened, the optical cable is sent into the tapping box from the central hole at the bottom of the tapping box to be welded, and after the optical cable is welded with the optical cable tail fiber, the tapping box needs to be closed. The following problems exist in actual welding: firstly, for construction convenience, some constructors omit the step of feeding the optical cable into the tapping box from the central hole at the bottom of the tapping box, so that the tapping box cannot be closed after welding, and even if the problems are not caused, the tapping box cannot be closed because of more wire harnesses in the tapping box and more disorder; secondly, because different constructors carry out welding operation at different time periods, the problems of accidental breaking of the previously welded optical cable and the like are likely to be caused; thirdly, during later maintenance, the wire bundles in the tapping box are scattered, and a one-knife cutting mode is generally adopted to cut off the wire bundles; fourth, the welding/quick-connection has a certain technical content and time investment, and the overall performance varies from person to person, so that the construction cost is high, the efficiency is low, and the maintenance difficulty is high. How to solve the technical problems is a technical problem to be solved in the field.
