Method for producing a holding configuration for at least one sheathed optical fiber conductor

A method for producing a holding configuration for at least one sheathed optical fiber conductor, which comprises:

• forming a holding body with a through-channel, the through-channel having a first channel section with a first channel section width, a second channel section with a second channel section width, an expansion region between the first channel section and the second channel section, and an outlet opening having a rounded rim;
• applying a fixing compound from the outlet opening into the expansion region for fixing a section of an optical fiber conductor introduced into the first channel section, and metering the fixing compound being applied for permitting the optical fiber conductor to emerge through the outlet opening with radial freedom of movement and free of fixing compound;
• and
• dimensioning the first channel section width for exerting capillary forces on the fixing compound contributing to filling a gap between the optical fiber conductor and the first channel section with the fixing compound, and dimensioning the second channel section width for maintaining the fixing compound in the second channel section free of capillary forces.
