ABSTRACT:
An enclosure having a base and a cover defining a chamber used to hold telecommunications hardware for splicing and/or connecting to a cable can be expanded in volume by removing the cover from the base and mounting a mid layer between the base and the cover. Depending on whether or not the mid layer is configured with a mounting plane, the expanded enclosure will have either a single larger chamber (i.e., mid layer without a mounting plane) or two chambers (i.e., mid layer with a mounting plane). In either case, the enclosure can be expanded in the field without dismounting the base or even disturbing any of the electrical connections housed within the base.
