A bend limiter configured to prevent a fiber optic cable from bending beyond a minimum bend radius includes: a base that may extend in a longitudinal direction; first and second cable coupling portions at ends of the base; and a wall that may extend in a first direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The wall may include segmented portions and may be configured to bend until facing surfaces of adjacent ones of the segmented portions contact one another; and the length of the base and an angle of a first notch between the adjacent segmented portions may be structurally configured to permit the wall to freely bend at any angle until the facing surfaces of the adjacent segmented portions engage one another to prevent a cable received by the cable coupling portions from bending past its minimum bend radius so as to mitigate signal degradation.
