ABSTRACT:
An outlet assembly for use with optical fibers and, where called for, electrical cables has a hinged wall plate adapted to be mounted to an outlet box. The wall plate is adapted to receive couplers therein for receiving both optical fiber and electrical connectors. A storage spool is mountable to the rear of the wall plate for storing the required amounts of fiber slack and includes wall members and guide members for maintaining separation among at least some of the fibers. The wall plate has an upper portion which is pivotally connected to a lower portion and which can be swung away from the outlet box to provide access to the rear of the wall plate. A protective hood is movably mountable to the front of the wall plate to protect the various connections thereto.
