Abstract: A clamp for suspending a wire includes a housing having an inner support surface. The wire is disposed between the inner support surface and a keeper. The clamp further includes a fastening unit, including a first fastener and a second fastener attachable to the first fastener. The housing defines an opening extending in a direction along which the wire is received within the housing. After the second fastener is attached to the first fastener, the fastening unit is not removable from the housing. The fastening unit is movable, within the opening, between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the fastening unit cooperates with the keeper to decrease a distance between the inner support surface and the keeper. In the second position, the fastening unit does not cooperate with the keeper to decrease the distance.

Abstract: A terminal closure to enclose a drop connection. A closure base and a closure cover mate to define an interior space of the terminal closure. A movable cap is located on the closure cover. While in a closed position, the cap and an associated portion of the closure cover bound a volume. A grommet is located within the volume. The grommet includes an internal bore to receive a plug or a drop cable. The grommet has an outer periphery boundary that is at least as large as the volume bounded by the cap and the portion of the closure cover such that the grommet is sealingly engaged by the cap and the portion of the closure cover when the cap is in the closed position. There may be a plurality of port openings arranged in rows, each row being at a respective, different distance from a mount side wall.

Abstract: A breakout device for mid-span fiber separation. First and second portions that each have a hollow interior space that defines a first part of a primary interior pathway and that defines a first part of a secondary interior pathway that branches away from the primary pathway. The first and second portions together bound the primary and secondary pathways. The first and second portions together define: a first entrance orifice, a second exit orifice and a third exit orifice. The first and second portions are configured to permit in-situ placement of the device upon elongated fibers. All the fibers extend through the first entrance orifice at the entrance to the primary pathway, a first group of the fibers extend through the second exit orifice at an exit from the primary pathway, and a second group of the fibers extend through the third exit orifice at an exit from the secondary pathway.
