Abstract:
The present invention relates to an optical fibre tray assembly for organizing a plurality of optical fibre elements. The optical fibre tray assembly (1) comprises a lower tray (100) having a lower support plate (102) projected on a lower front surface side (104) thereof by a plurality of lower wall portions (106) forming a lower organizing area (108) for organizing at least one optical fibre element (111), and provided with a lower hinge means (118). The optical fibre tray assembly further comprises an upper tray (200) which has an upper support plate which provides an upper rear surface side (204) for covering partially the lower front surface side (104) of the lower tray (100) and which provides an upper front surface side (206) projected by a plurality of upper wall portions (208) forming an upper organizing area (210) for organizing at least one further optical fibre element (112), wherein the upper support plate (202) is projected laterally by upper hinge means (212). Said lower and upper hinge means (118; 212) cooperate with each other for pivotably connecting both trays (100, 200) with each other. The upper hinge means (212) provide a connection path (214) for guiding the at least one further optical fibre element (112) received by one of the lower tray (100) and the upper tray (200) toward the other tray (100; 200) thereof. Thereby, an improved optical fibre tray assembly may be provided, which allows an improved handling and organizing of the optical fibre elements.
Abstract:
A closure (10) includes a cover (4) and seal block (18). A feeder cable pathway and rear cover is provided for separation of feeder cables from drop cables. The organizer (426) in the closure includes an end cap and rear cable storage (190). Cable fixation clips, linear or bendable, can be used individually or daisy chained together. Cable fixation chambers (224, 226) are positioned on top of the gel block (220) housing. The organizer is a click together organizer. Dual heights on cable guides on sides of the groove plate facilitate cable installation. Tray supports with rounded ends prevent looseness of the tray mounts. Other organizers include cable routing features for compact storage.
Abstract:
A locking system for an enclosure (10) wherein the enclosure (10) includes a base (12) and a moveable cover (14). The cover (14) is moveable only when a key operated slide (70) is moved by a key (26) inserted into a key slot (24). Once the cover (14) is moved, the key (26) cannot be removed from the key slot (24) until the cover (14) is returned to the closed positioned. A moveable latch (50) holds the cover (14) to the base (12). The key operated slide (70) selectively connects and disconnects from the latch (50) to allow the cover (14) to be moved. The latch (50) cooperates with a clip (94) on the slide (70) which allows the slide (70) to return to the locked position to allow the key (26) to be removed from the key slot(24) only when the cover (14) and the latch (50) are closed. One or two latches can be provided with a corresponding number of key operated slides (70). The key (26) is rotatable to move the slide (70) from an extended and locked position to a retracted and unlocked position.
Abstract:
A fiber optic enclosure system (100) includes an enclosure (102), a plurality of fiber optic adaptors (132), and a drawer (130). The enclosure (102) defines an enclosure chamber (108). The plurality of fiber optic adaptors (132) is arranged on the enclosure (102). The drawer (130) is used to route an optical fiber main cable (90) within the drawer (130). The drawer (130) is removably inserted into the enclosure chamber (108).
Abstract:
