ABSTRACT:
An enclosure (10) for junctions of telephone service wires (18,19) and a stub cable (16) includes a rear panel member (20) and a front cover (100) adapted to be slid downwardly to expose the interior of the enclosure for wire interconnection and servicing. Wire-receiving openings (40,42) of the enclosure are organized in linear arrays and are sealed by a pair of elastomeric strips (80,90;44,46) held against the enclosure wall by bracket members (50,48), with one strip (90) having small diameter holes (92) for just fitting around a wire, and the other (80) having slits (82) which remain closed if no wire is inserted into a particular opening, with both the small diameter holes and slits aligned between the enclosure openings and openings (52) through the bracket members. Certain bracket members (50) are mounted to the outer surface of the rear wall (22) of the rear panel member (20) along side edges (32) thereof to define vertical channels (66), and flanges (118,120) of side walls (112,114) of the front cover (100) fit thereinto for guided sliding of the front cover during opening and closing.
