See full text

A splicing enclosure is comprised of a base portion and a lid portion, with a grounding contact positioned in both halves. The grounding contacts include a plurality of grounding contact portions to receive shielded cable in a transverse relation thereto. The enclosure is provided with a removable ferrule, which can be slidably received between the shielding and inner sheath of a shielded cable to enhance the strain relief on the cable between the cable and the grounding contact. The grounding contact is designed so as to accommodate a plurality of shielded cable configurations. The enclosure is also provided with a progressive latch, which cooperates upon rotation of the lid relative to its base portion to take off the load from the integrated hinge to prevent breakage of the hinge.
