Abstract

See full text

An electrical terminating arrangement (100) serving as an interconnection juncture for joining central office equipment with outside plant facilities, an access point for testing and a protection provisioning point comprises connector apparatus (402), tie cabling (500) and protector apparatus (110) wherein the conventional stand-alone test field appearance is eliminated. Test access is provided directly through sockets (130) in front face (113) of protector apparatus (110), or indirectly to test lands through apertures (403) in protector device (400) inserted in sockets (130). Reliability is achieved by utilizing connector (170) to couple protector apparatus (110) to a mated connector on the outside plant stub cable. Installation complexity is reduced by employing snap-in details (190) as well as plug-in details.
