ABSTRACT:
A closure assembly for encapsulating a fiber optic cable. A pair of opposed end plates cooperate with respective adaptor collars to receive an organizer tray therebetween defining a first cavity. A resin cup is positioned adjacent at least one end plate to receive the fiber optic cable as it extends inwardly into the first cavity. A first resin is retained in the resin cup and encapsulates the fiber optic cable therein. An inner shell assembly is thereafter positioned around the organizer tray to close off the first cavity. An outer shell assembly is next positioned around the inner shell and the end plates to define an annular second cavity. A reenterable resin fills the second cavity to prevent radial ingress of moisture into the cavity.
