The invention relates to a cable contact weather protection device for receiving cable contact points, in particular of fiber optic cable contact points, with at least one cable pass-through sealing unit comprising at least two separate sealing modules, which are exchangeable independently from each other and each of which is provided to at least sectionally completely encompass, in at least one usage state, at least one elongate body in a circumferential direction.

An optical fiber transition assembly comprises a cable having a first terminal end from which extends an optical fiber. A furcation tube is also provided, having a second terminal end near the first terminal end of the cable into which the optical fiber of the cable is received. A polymeric transition element surrounds the first and second terminal ends to protect and secure the optical fiber in transition from the cable to the furcation tube, the polymeric transition element being configured to be retained in an entry port of an enclosure.

A gel sealing device includes a gel sealing block (5) which provides a sealing section (22) through which the elongate parts (13, 14) extend. The gel sealing block (5) includes an upper flange (11) and a lower flange (12) with a support section (11a, 12a, 12b) disposed therebetween. The upper and lower flanges (11, 12) sandwiches, in direction of extension of the elongate parts (13, 14), a gel inner ring (7) supported by said support section (2) and a gel outer ring (6, 10a) covering the gel inner ring (7) in a radial direction extending transverse to said extension direction. The gel inner ring (7) and the gel outer ring (6, 10a) are made of a gel sealing material.

A communication enclosure is described that includes an enclosure body having a first body portion and a second body portion. An adapter mounting mechanism is disposed in the first body portion, and a connector adapter mounted into the mounting mechanism that is configured to accept an optical fiber connector. The enclosure includes at least one integrated tool for terminating field mountable optical fiber connectors wherein the at least one integrated tool is disposed on one of the first body portion and the second body portion. In an exemplary aspect, the at least one integrated tool is a connector polishing platform.

Devices such as terminals comprising connection ports with associated securing features and methods for making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, the device comprises a shell, at least one connection port, and at least one securing feature. The at least one connection port is disposed on the terminal with the at least one connection port comprising an optical connector opening extending from an outer surface of the terminal to a cavity of the terminal and defining a connection port passageway. The securing feature is associated with the connection port passageway and is biased by a resilient member having a predetermined pre-load restoring force to the retain position.

A multi-cable terminal including a plurality of sub-structures, each of the sub-structures defining a sub-enclosure and being openable independent of the other sub-structures to provide access to the sub-enclosure, and a frame that secures the plurality of sub-structures such that the frame and sub-structures define a main enclosure. Each of the sub-enclosures is configured to accommodate a multiple of cable connection elements such that a watertight seal is created around the cable connection elements when the corresponding sub-structure is closed.

Fiber optic splice closures adapted to house a large number of fiber splices. The closure holds a splice assembly including a support frame that supports two stacks of splice trays. The splice assembly can be inverted to access the second stack of splice trays. The support frame can also define one or more fiber organizing areas within the splice closure.

A cabinet unit for use in an optical fiber distribution system may include a housing having a cavity, a plurality of extension portions contained within the housing, each extension portion being adapted to support an adapter for receiving cables aligned lengthwise with the extension portion, and a support structure formed on an inner surface of the housing, each extension portion being mounted to the housing by the support structure and extends away from the inner surface of the housing. The plurality of extension portions may be hingedly coupled to the support structure. A clearance between two adjacent extension portions of a given support bar may be configured to be adjusted by rotating the adjacent extension portions along their respective hinged connections.

Disclosed herein are cable sealing devices having features for enhancing effective sealing, volume compensation, seal pressurization, cable size range-taking, cable installation and insert installation. Also disclosed herein is an enclosure including at least one cable sealing device.

The present disclosure describes sealing boots for protecting an optical interconnection. A sealing boot may include a main body having an interior cavity, the interior cavity having an annular recess adjacent to one end of the main body, the annular recess configured to receive a feature of a remote radio unit, and a neck merging with the opposing end of the main body and having a cylindrical inner surface that defines a bore that is continuous with the cavity of the main body, the inner surface having an inner diameter that is less than an inner diameter of the interior cavity of the main body. The sealing boot is configured to surround at least a portion of a fixed active optical connector when the fixed active optical connector is plugged into the remote radio unit.
