Abstract
The present invention relates to a rapid optical fiber link restoration solution rapidly deployed by pulling, blowing, jetting or hanging in an aerial, on-ground, underground or inside a duct includes an optical fiber connector and an optical fiber cable. The optical fiber connector is connected at both ends of the optical fiber cable. Particularly, the optical fiber cable is dielectric and has a tensile strength 2500 N and a crush resistance of 2000 N/100 mm. Moreover, the optical fiber connector has water resistance for 1.5 meters of water-head for a maximum period of 30 minutes.
