A relatively small fiber optic plug (10) is provided to facilitate pulling of the fiber optic plug and an associated fiber optic cable (12) through small passageways. The fiber optic plug may include a shroud (56) that protects the fiber optic connector and that may further define at least one opening (58), and preferably a pair of openings. The openings are sized to receive portions of an adapter sleeve once the fiber optic plug is mated with a fiber optic receptacle. The fiber optic plug may also include a cap mounted upon and adapted to swivel relative to the remainder of the fiber optic plug to serve as a pulling grip during installation of the fiber optic cable. Further, the fiber optic plug may include a crimp band that is mchanically coupled to both the fiber optic cable and the plug body in order to isolate the fiber optic connector from torque otherwise created by forces to which the fiber optic cable is subjected.

L'invention concerne une prise de fibre optique, relativement petite, facilitant sa traction et celle du câble de fibre optique associé à travers des passages de petites sections. La prise de fibre optique peut comprendre une enveloppe protégeant le connecteur de fibre optique, pouvant aussi définir au moins une ouverture, de préférence, une paire d'ouvertures. La taille de ces ouvertures permet de recevoir des portions d'un manchon adaptateur lorsque la prise de fibre optique est appariée à un réceptacle de fibre optique. La prise de fibre optique peut aussi comprendre un capuchon monté dessus et adapté à pivoter par rapport au reste de la prise afin de servir de prise de traction lors de l'installation du câble de fibre optique. En outre, cette prise peut comporter une bande, sertie mécaniquement, couplée à la fois au câble de fibre optique et à la prise, de façon à isoler le connecteur de fibre optique des couples créés par les forces auxquelles est soumis le câble de fibre optique.
