FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to construction and installation of cables of optical links and is intended for use in optical socket structures. The cable input of an optical socket comprises a housing with an elongated portion stretched outwards, having an oval cross-section with a through-hole for entry of a loop of a bent cable into the socket. A ferrule is placed in the through-hole, said ferrule having channels for the cable of said loop, each channel, at least at one end of the through-hole, having a variable cross-section on the length. In the working position, the cable input together with cables in the channels of the ferrule is tightened at all sides by a sealing element which is closed around the perimeter and made of heat shrinkable material.
EFFECT: high quality of connecting cables and easier installation.
