ABSTRACT:
A weatherproof protector module for telecommunication circuits has wire insertion points that are arranged in lateral, forward and rearward symmetry about a single stuffer screw. The module contains J-shaped insulation displacement connectors (IDCs) with slits for engaging the wires. The symmetry of the module allows the screw to exert balanced forces in every direction as the wires engage the IDCs. The module also contains an insulative gel that is extruded around the wire contact locations when the wires are engaged. A wiper seal located each wire insertion point and a thixotropic gel prevent the expulsion of the insulative gel from the module after extrusion.
