  • Patent number: 11677223
    Abstract: Grounding assemblies for cables entering telecommunications enclosures. The grounding assemblies include a cable fixation subassembly and a grounding subassembly that are electrically coupled together to ground strength members and a conductive shield of a cable. The cable fixation subassembly can fixate the cable such that the strength members lie in a plane that is at a non-zero angle relative to each of a horizontal reference plane and a vertical reference plane.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5308923
    Abstract: The cover and base of the enclosure of the assembly are releasably connected by latches and flanges integral with the cover and base. A mounting bracket facilitates mounting of the assembly upon a telephone pole or other exposed static structure. Vertically spaced upper and lower cable strain-relieving members underlie each cable passageway of the base of the enclosure. Each strain-relieving member is of generally u-shaped configuration. The open ends of the upper and lower strain-relieving members face in different directions. Each pair of the strain-relieving members collectively extends about the entire circumference of a cable engaged thereby.

  • Patent number: 5059748
    Abstract: A re-enterable butt cable splice closure comprising a base and domed cover. The base has various parts that hinge together around cables, and has a gel sealing material defining cable entry ports which gel is put under compression when the parts of the bases are brought together. The base is supported on a support that has guides that align the cables with the ports.
