  • Publication number: 20080131132
    Abstract: A network interface device includes a body, a cover, and a cable spool. The front of the body defines a forward interior in which telecommunications components are arranged. An optical adapter extends partially out of the forward interior at an optical coupling location. The cover includes a shroud that extends over the portion of the optical adapter extending out of the forward interior when the cover is closed. Sidewalls extend from the rear of the body to define a rearward pocket. The cable spool can be removably mounted within the rearward pocket. Alternatively, the cable spool can be fixed to the body and the sidewalls can be removed from the body to allow access to the cable spool.
