Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a telecommunications cable including a distribution cable (220) and a tether (242) that branches from the distribution cable (220) at a mid-span breakout location (241). A flexible closure covers the mid-span breakout location (241). Within the closure, fibers are broken out from the distribution cable (220) and spliced to fibers of the tether (242). The lengths of broken out fibers within the flexible closure are provided with sufficient excess fiber length to allow the closure to be readily bent/flexed in any direction without damaging the fibers.
