Abstract:
A splice tray holder (14) includes a body with a first portion (48a) a second portion (48b), and a front surface (42). A retention portion (52) is disposed on an outer periphery (60) of each of the first and second portions (48a, 48b) and defines a receiving groove having an inner surface (64) that faces toward the front surface (42) of the body. A spring portion (50) is disposed on each of the first and second portions (48a, 48b), wherein the spring portion (50) is adapted to provide a biasing force in a direction from the front surface (42) of the body toward the inner surface (64) of the receiving groove.
Abstract:
A fiber distribution system includes one or more fiber distribution hubs (FDHs) that provide an interface at a termination panel between incoming fibers routed from a central office and outgoing fibers routed to network subscribers. Termination modules can be incrementally added to the termination panel. The FDH can include one or more optical splitter modules that split an optical signal into two or more signals. The optical splitter modules can be incrementally added along with one or more storage modules. The subscriber termination panel, optical splitters, and storage modules can be provided on a swing frame.
Abstract:
A telecommunications connection cabiner (100) including an excess fiber storage area (118). The excess fiber storage area (118) including a bulkhead (124) for receiving fiber connector holders (122) for protecting the connectors (182) terminating the excess fibers from contamination. The telecommunications connection cabinet (100) also comprises a fiber optic splitter (102) receiving a first fiber optic cable (104) and splitting an optical signal carried by the cable into a plurality of fiber distribution cables (114), each fiber distribution cable (114) terminated by a fiber optic connector (180) having a polished end face (182).
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a telecommunications distribution cabinet having a cabinet housing in which a first swing frame and a second swing frame are pivotably mounted.
Abstract:
A cable radius limiter having a radius limiting surface that prevents damage to cables due to excessive bending. The cable radius limiter includes mounting structure and cable retaining structure arranged such that the limiter can be operably oriented and mounted to a mounting bracket in both a first mounting orientation and a second mounting orientation. Two radius limiters can be mounted together to form a cable spool.
Abstract:
A telecommunications optical fiber distribution system is disclosed. The system comprises a support structure defining a longitudinal axis. A plurality of fiber optic signal splitters are arranged radially with respect to the longitudinal axis defined by the support structure, each fiber optic signal splitter including a signal input location and a split signal output location. A plurality of adapters mounted to the support structure are arranged radially around the longitudinal axis defined by the support structure. Each adapter includes a first connection end for receiving a connector terminated to an output cable extending from the output location of the splitter and a second connection end for receiving a connector terminated to an outgoing distribution cable.

Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a jack assembly including a jack mount for slidably receiving a jack that includes a plurality of conductive tip and ring springs. When plugs are received, the tip springs make electrical contact with tip contacts of the plugs and the ring springs make electrical contact with ring contacts of the plugs. When plugs are not received, the tip and ring springs make contact with normal contacts of the jack. The jack assembly also includes cross-connect contacts and a rear interface assembly. The rear interface assembly includes a dielectric support and a plurality of coaxial connectors projecting outwardly therefrom away from the jack mount. A circuit board is positioned between the jack mount and the dielectric support. The coaxial connectors are electrically connected to baluns mounted on a second circuit board mounted within the dielectric support. The second board is electrically connected to the first board by dual compliant pins. Electrical connections are established between the coaxial connectors and the tip and ring springs when the rear interface assembly is secured to the jack mount.

Abstract:
A telecommunications optical fiber distribution system (100) is disclosed. The system (100) comprises a support structure with an upper end, a lower end, a front side, a rear side, and a longitudinal axis. An input cable carrying an input signal and an output cable carrying an output signal is received into the system through the lower end. A plurality of signal splitters (110) located at the upper end of the support structure split the input signal into a plurality of secondary signals. The system (100) includes a plurality of adapters (150) arranged radially about the longitudinal axis along the front side of the support structure. The adapters (150) connect the secondary signals to the output signal. A cable management structure (146) having portions located both along the front side between the plurality of adapters (150) and the splitters (110) and adjacent the back side manage and direct cables going from the input opening to the splitters (110) and from the splitters (110) to the adapters (150).
