  • Publication number: 20230348676
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are various cable gel seal arrangements and thermoplastic gels useful therein. The thermoplastic gels are prepared from a composition including a styrene triblock copolymer, a styrene diblock copolymer, an oil extender, and an additive selected from poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide), a C9 resin, poly(alpha-methylstyrene), a coumarone-indene resin, and combinations thereof, wherein the additive has a Tg from about 95° C. to about 200° C. The thermoplastic gels advantageously exhibit low compression set.

  • Publication number: 20230333341
    Abstract: Certain types of aggregation enclosures include cable input ports and downwardly angled cable output ports. A cover is pivotally coupled to the body so that the cover moves between an open position and a closed position. A modular component panel may be disposed within the enclosure. The component panel includes one or more distribution components (e.g., fiber distribution components or power distribution components) configured to connect at least a portion of an incoming cable to at least a portion of an outgoing cable.

  • Patent number: 10208859
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cable sealing device (30) for providing a seal around a communications cable (88, 90). The cable sealing device (30) includes a cable seal arrangement (38) positioned between first and second compression plates (92F, 92R). The cable sealing device (30) also includes an actuator (36) for compressing the first and second compression plates (92F, 92R) together to deform the cable sealing arrangement (38) such that the cable sealing arrangement (38) is adapted to form a seal about a cable (88, 90) routed through the cable sealing device (30). The actuator includes a cam lever (94) pivotally movable between an actuated position (P2) and a non-actuated position (P1). The actuator also includes a spring (98) for transferring load between the cam lever (94) and the first and second compression plates (92F, 92R). The spring (98) is pre-loaded when the cam lever (94) is in the non-actuated position (P1) (FIG.

  • Patent number: 9250407
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cable sealing device (30) for providing a seal about a cable (88, 90). The cable sealing device (30) includes a cable seal arrangement (38) that is pressurized to seal the cable (88, 90). The cable sealing device (30) includes an autonomous containment structure (92F, 92R, 56) for laterally and axially containing the sealing arrangement (38). The autonomous containment structure (92F, 92R, 56) includes a moveable portion (92F, 92R) that is moved to an actuated position to pressurize the cable seal arrangement (38). The cable sealing device (30) also includes a retention mechanism (129) for retaining the moveable portion (92F, 92R) in the actuated position.
