Abstract: Electronic equipment installed outdoors to house an internal unit is provided, meeting the waterproof standard and having an easily replaceable structure of the internal unit. The electronic equipment has an enclosure having a cover and a case with an opening and an air vent, and an internal unit in which an electronic component is mounted. The internal unit has a heat sink and radiation fins for releasing heat generated by the electronic component. The fins are inserted into the opening. The heat sink has a draining portion formed below the fins in a direction perpendicular to an extending direction of the radiation fins, a groove for waterproofing around the fins except an upper portion thereof, and two protrusions for fitting above the fins. The case has a rib for waterproofing around the opening except an upper portion thereof, and two holes for fitting above the opening.

Abstract: In order to ensure waterproofing between a resin enclosure case and a heat sink, a canopy structure is provided in a portion, in which water is likely to penetrate, so as to prevent the water from entering the portion, thereby directing the water flow to the outside of the enclosure. This makes it easy to install and remove an electronic unit, so that an electronic component integrally formed with the heat sink can be easily replaced.

Abstract: There can be realized a compact optical network unit with an optical cable provided between an optical cable housing and an optical video terminal housing. When the optical video terminal housing is opened and closed by rotating 90 degrees or more about hinges connecting the two housings, the extra length of the optical cable is absorbed in an optical cable length adjustment portion of the optical video terminal housing as well as in an optical cable housing portion. Thus, the optical cable can be smoothly moved through a cable guide which is a base point of the movable portion of the optical cable, without an operation to prevent the optical cable from being stuck.
