ABSTRACT:
A moulded resilient sealing device adapted to close the exposed opening in a telephone subscriber jack to prevent entry of moisture, vermin and the like. The device includes a cap-like body having a continuous peripheral edge which contacts a planar surface surrounding the plug opening, and a smaller opening at an opposite end thereof which resiliently clamps a flattened cable leading to subscriber equipment, such as a telephone handset at one end and a corresponding plug engaging jack at an opposite end. The opening is shiftable along the cable to increase the resilient force applied to the peripheral edge. The edge is also reinforced along one rectilinear side to prevent distortion by contact with the release lever of the plug, and accomodate for commerical manufacturing tolerances encountered in jacks of different manufacture.
