ABSTRACT:
An enclosure (10) for temporarily housing a fiber cable splice includes upper and lower halves (14,12) that may be repeatably separated to expose a splice block (20) enclosed therein. The enclosure allows for an interrupted fiber splice arrangement to be securely stored without causing damage to any exposed optical fibers. The bare fibers are disposed in the lower half of the enclosure next to the splice block and held to prevent movement. A pair of grommets (28,30) are inserted in either end of the enclosure to prevent the introduction of water (or any foreign material) into the housing.
