Abstract

Fiber blocking apparatuses couple to an outside fiber optic cable and include a damping unit that prevents damaging (e.g., micro-fracturing) optical fibers received from the outside fiber optic cable and blocks a gelatinous element from advancing out of the outside fiber optic cable. The fiber blocking apparatuses include a view port providing visibility of a routing of the optical fibers in the fiber blocking apparatuses.
