Zusammenfassung:A traceable cable assembly includes a traceable cable having at least one data transmission element, a jacket at least partially surrounding the at least one data transmission element, and a tracing optical fiber incorporated with and extending along at least a portion of a length of the traceable cable. The traceable cable assembly also includes a connector provided at each end of the traceable cable. Each connector has a connector housing having opposed first and second ends, the second end being coupled to the traceable cable, and a diffuser supported by the connector housing. The connector housing is configured to receive tracer light from the tracing optical fiber and allow the tracer light to leave the connector housing. The diffuser is also configured to diffuse the tracer light leaving the connector housing.
