Abstract: A packaging arrangement for a bundle of cable includes a planar packaging blank extending in a longitudinal direction from a first end to a second end. The blank includes a middle region extending from the first end to the second end between a first fold line and a second fold line, a first side extending from the first end to the second end and including a plurality of first flaps extending from the first fold line in a direction away from the second side in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and a second side extending from the first end to the second end and including a plurality of second flaps extending from the second fold line in a direction away from the first side in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The blank is configured to be rolled into a cylindrical shape such that the first end overlaps the second end.

Abstract: A meter box ground clamp may include a body portion having a first portion, a second portion, and a gripping portion that is configured to extend from the second portion and a fastener member configured to couple the body portion to an electrical meter box. The fastening member may be configured to extend through a receiving portion of the first portion to engage a first surface of the meter box so as to move the first portion away from the first surface of the meter box and move the gripping portion into engagement with a second surface of the meter box that faces away from the first surface of the meter box, and the receiving portion may be configured to receive the fastener member at a first angle less than 90 degrees relative to a plane of the first portion such that a free end of the fastener member forms a second angle greater than zero degrees relative to the second surface of the meter box.

Abstract: A spool includes a receiving portion configured to receive a coil of cable and a first retaining portion and a second retaining portion configured to retain the coil of cable on the receiving portion. A portion of an outer peripheral surface of the first retaining portion and a portion of an outer peripheral surface of the second retaining portion are configured to engage a ground surface. The first retaining portion includes first support portions configured to extend beyond the outer peripheral surface of the first retaining portion to engage the ground surface across a greater distance than the outer peripheral surface of the first retaining portion, and the second retaining portion includes second support portions configured to extend beyond the outer peripheral surface of the second retaining portion to engage the ground surface across a greater distance than the outer peripheral surface of the second retaining portion.

Abstract: A cable connector includes a housing, a conductive insert affixed within the housing, a first conductive plug, and a second conductive plug. The housing defines a first port, a second port, a third port, and a fourth port. The first conductive plug and the second conductive plug are removably affixed to the housing. The first conductive plug further includes a dust cap and an insulating pin that is rotationally fixed to the dust cap. The first conductive plug provides a single structure that is configured to block moisture and engage the first center conductor against the first end of the conductive insert. Alternatively, the first conductive plug may include a dust cap, an insulator and a pin that are rotationally affixed to one another.

Abstract: A cable television (CATV) multi-tap system includes a tap housing. The system also includes a face plate including one or more subscriber ports. The system also includes a circuit board positioned within the tap housing and coupled to the face plate. The system also includes an access cover coupled to the tap housing. The access cover is configured to be removed from the tap housing to allow access to the circuit board without removing the face plate or the circuit board from the tap housing.
