A sealing ring is arranged at the first opening and protrudes from the plane height of the first opening. A box body fixing structure is arranged on the outside of the box body.
Universal expandable cable management bracket
A cable management bracket that routes cables in a cabinet or rack. The cable management bracket includes an inner mounting rail and an outer mounting rail. The outer mounting rail is secured to the inner mounting rail by fasteners. The inner mounting rail has a top flange, first and second end flanges, a bottom flange, and a side surface. The outer mounting rail has a top flange, an end flange, a bottom flange, and a side surface. The side surfaces of the inner mounting rail and the outer mounting rail have a plurality of mounting features for securing bundling clips that receive a plurality of cables.
EMERGENCY CABLE BREAKING MECHANISM
Embodiments of a tensile strength limiting system are provided. The tensile strength limiting system is configured to cause breakage of an optical fiber cable at a predetermined tensile loading below a tensile strength of the optical fiber cable. The tensile strength limiting system includes a force limiter configured for attachment to the optical fiber cable strung on an aerial pole and a restriction clip through which the optical fiber cable is configured to be looped. At the predetermined tensile loading, the force limiter is configured to allow the optical fiber cable to pull through the restriction clip; and the restriction clip is configured to force the optical fiber cable to bend below a minimum bend radius of a strength member within the optical fiber cable such that the strength member breaks.
FIBER SPLICE CLOSURE
A fiber splice closure for housing an optical connection between a distribution cable and at least one drop cable of an optical network includes a base and an insert. The base includes round drop cable ports configured to receive a drop cable containing a first optical fiber. Screw holes are arranged in a radial side wall of the drop cable ports and receive a fixing device to secure the drop cable. A round port receives a distribution cable containing a second optical fiber. A clamp secures the distribution cable to the base. An insert has first and second wrap guides that house excess first optical fiber. A center section is arranged between the first and second wrap guides and includes a splitter module, splice protector holder elements that hold splice protectors, an LC adaptor that receives the second optical fiber from the distribution cable, and an LC connector module that connects the first optical fiber to the splitter, which in turn is connected to the LC adaptor, thereby providing an optical connection between the distribution cable and the drop cable.
OPTICAL WIRING UNIT AND OPTICAL TERMINATION BOX
An optical wiring unit includes: a tray that includes a bottom plate; and a lid body that includes a top plate facing the bottom plate in an up-down direction. An accommodating space that accommodates an optical fiber is formed between the bottom plate and the top plate. one of the tray and the lid body includes: an outer wall portion; and an inner wall portion inside the accommodating space with respect to the outer wall portion. The other of the tray and the lid body includes an intermediate wall portion inserted between the outer wall portion and the inner wall portion. The inner wall portion has a dimension in the up-down direction smaller than that of the outer wall portion.
OPTICAL FIBER SHEATH HOLDERS FOR FIBER OPTIC CLOSURE ORGANIZERS
Holders that anchor sheaths containing optical fibers. The holders include various anchoring and placement features for the sheaths held by the holders. In some examples, a labyrinthine passage is provided to secure the sheaths within the holder. In some examples, the holder includes a twist-to-anchor mechanism. In some examples, the holder includes a narrow and expandable lateral entry slot for sheaths that is in communication with a wide sheath holding volume.

OPTICAL FIBER SPLICE CLOSURE AND METHOD OF INSTALLING FIBER OPTIC CABLES
The present disclosure describes an optical fiber splice closure for joining two fiber optic cables. The optical fiber splice closure comprises a strain relief assembly that securely holds the two fiber optic cables being connected, and an enclosure that houses the strain relief assembly. The configuration of the strain relief assembly allows for securing the two fiber optic cables in a compact space, thus permitting a compact enclosure of the optical fiber splice closure, while also providing quick and easy installation in the field. A method of installing fiber optic cables using the optical fiber splice closure is also disclosed. The optical fiber splice closure and ease of installation also facilitates repairing damaged fiber optic cable. A method of repairing existing fiber optic cable is disclosed.
