Abstract:
A pedestal terminal includes a frame mounted to a base and a cover configured to mount to the base. The frame including a support frame and a swing frame pivotally mounted to the support frame. A splitter module mounting location is positioned on the frame. The splitter module mounting location is adapted to mount a splitter arrangement including splitter pigtails to the frame. A first termination field includes a plurality of fiber optic adapters, each being configured to couple one of the splitter pigtails to a distribution cable. A second termination field includes a plurality of fiber optic adapters, each being configured to couple one of the splitter pigtails to a drop cable. A pivoting cover arrangement can be mounted to a top of the support frame to inhibit contact between the splitter arrangement and the cover when the cover is mounted to or removed from the base.
Abstract:
A wall box includes an enclosure having a base and a cover connected to the base. The base and the cover enclose an interior region. The wall box further includes a plurality of fiber optic adapters mounted to the enclosure. The fiber optic adapters include an inner port positioned inside the interior region and an outer port positioned at an outer surface of the enclosure. A tray stack is mounted within the interior region. The tray stack includes a tray mount pivotally connected to the enclosure. The tray mount includes a top surface and an oppositely disposed bottom surface. A first splice tray mounting area is disposed on the top surface and a second splice tray mounting area is disposed on the bottom surface. A plurality of trays is disposed in the first splice tray mounting area. A tray is disposed in the second splice tray mounting area.
Abstract:
A telecommunications enclosure includes a telecommunications enclosure locking system. The telecommunications enclosure locking system includes a base, a cover, a lock, a releasing key, and a releasing key retainer. The base is adapted for mounting to a structure. The cover is moveable between a closed position and an opened position. The cover and the base define an enclosed interior when the cover is at the closed position. The interior is open for access when the cover is at the opened position. The lock is moveable between a locking configuration and a releasing configuration. The lock automatically moves to the locking configuration when the cover is moved to the closed position and thereby automatically locks the cover to the base when the cover is moved to the closed position. The releasing key is adapted to move the lock from the locking configuration to the releasing configuration. The releasing key retainer is adapted to receive and retain the releasing key when the lock is in the releasing configuration and is also adapted to eject and release the releasing key when the lock is in the locking configuration.
Abstract:
A telecommunications cabinet includes an enclosure, a splitter mounted within the enclosure for splitting a fiber optic signal, a plurality of adjacently positioned adapter trays mounted within the enclosure, each tray being pivotable about an axis generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the enclosure and each adapter tray housing a plurality of adapters, the enclosure also including an excess cable storage structure for storing cables that are not connected by the adapters mounted on the adapter trays, the excess cable storage structure providing a termination location for fiber optic cables without providing a continuous optical path for the fiber optic signals.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a slack storage tray for managing slack associated with fiber terminations in a distribution cabinet. The storage tray includes a base defining a cable pathway for storing multiple loops of a cable. A hinged cover further defines a cable pathway for managing the cable.
Abstract:
A telecommunications cabinet comprising a top, a floor, a pair of opposing sides, a front wall and a rear wall defining an interior, the front including an access door for accessing the interior. Within the interior are mounted a cable management structure, an adapter panel with an adapter configured to optical connector two optical fiber cables terminated with fiber optic connectors, and a fiber optic connector holder mounted in openings of the adapter panel. The connector holder has an opening configured to receive a fiber optic connector with a dust cap, the opening accessible from a front side of the adapter panel. A fiber optic connector including a ferrule with a polished end face holding an end of an optical fiber with a dust cap placed about the ferrule and polished end face is inserted within the opening of a fiber optic connector holder. And a fiber optic connector is inserted within the rear side of one of the adapters.
Abstract:
A cable anchoring assembly includes a jacket anchoring block having a jacket clamping location and a reinforcing structure anchoring block mounted to the jacket anchoring block. The reinforcing structure anchoring block includes a reinforcing structure anchoring location that defines a fastener opening and an access slot that extends outwardly from the fastener opening. The access slot has a first open end positioned at the fastener opening and a second open end offset from the fastener opening. The access slot provides an open lateral passage into the fastener opening. A fastener is adapted for engagement in the fastener opening.
Abstract:
A cable seal assembly includes a sealing member, a first housing member, and a second housing member. The sealing member defines a passageway that extends from a center opening of the sealing member through the periphery of the sealing member. The first housing member is disposed in the passageway and the center opening of the sealing member and defines a cutout portion. The second housing member is disposed in the center opening of the sealing member and engaged with the cutout portion of the first housing member. The first housing member and the second housing member cooperatively define a central axial passage having an inner surface.
