A bracket may include a structural portion including at least one relatively rigid first material, and a sealing portion including at least one relatively elastic second material. The bracket may also include a first receiver including a first retainer portion configured to be coupled to an end of a first frame member, and a first sealing interface configured to provide a substantially fluid-resistant seal between a portion of the end of the first frame member and the first receiver. The corner bracket may also include a second receiver substantially parallel to the first receiver and including a second retainer portion configured to be coupled to an end of a second frame member, and a second sealing interface configured to provide a substantially fluid-resistant seal between a portion of the end of the second frame member and the second receiver. The bracket may be incorporated into a cabinet frame.

A method for sealing a telecommunications product is disclosed. The method includes securing a telecommunications product to an apparatus having heat blasters, and initiating a heat sealing operation that includes moving the heat blasters along a first plane toward a shrink wrap tubing until the heat blasters surround the shrink wrap tubing; delivering hot air from each heat blaster; and moving the heat blasters along a second plane along a predetermined length of the shrink wrap tubing, the second plane being orthogonal to the first plane.

A closure (100/200) protects telecommunications circuitry from water and dust. The closure (100/200) includes a base (128) that has a sidewall (134) that extends upwardly from a bottom (118), and the sidewall (134) has at least one cable port (122/222). The closure (100/200) also includes a cover (126) that attaches to the base (128) to close an interior (130) of the closure (100/200). Further, a galvanic anode (124) is removably secured to the sidewall (134) of the base (128) of the closure (100/200) and electronic circuitry (132) is disposed within the interior (130) of the closure (100/200). The electronic circuitry (132) is active electronic circuitry.
