Abstract:
A method of making a fiber optic connector sub-assembly involves: initially disposing a bonding agent in a ferrule bore of a ferrule; heating at least a portion of the ferrule above a melting temperature of the bonding agent so that some of the bonding agent melts; and solidifying the bonding agent that has melted to form the fiber optic connector sub-assembly, all without an optical fiber being disposed within the ferrule bore.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein the bonding agent that has been melted and solidified has a density between about 1.0 g/cc and about 1.5 g/cc, and further wherein the portion of the bonding agent between the first and second ends that has not been melted and solidified during steps (b) and (c) has a bulk density that is less than 1.0 g/cc.
