TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of optical fibre cable enclosure system. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a basement distribution box for indoor and outdoor installation. The present application is based on, and claims priority from an Indian Application Number 201911054413 filed on 30th December 2019, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Fibre optic networks are deployed by use of optical fibre cable termination boxes in multi dwelling units or other subscriber premises. These optical fibre cable termination boxes are deployed for meeting high bandwidth demands of the customers. Typically, these optical fibre cable termination boxes are installed in basements of buildings. These optical fibre termination boxes provide protection and distribution of optical fibre links. These optical fibre links are distributed to various floors of the building. Moreover, the excess length of optical fibre cables is often wound on spools for future extension of the cable. The fibre optic termination box may be a wall mounted enclosure to receive optical fibre cables directly from feeding stations. Multiple feeding cable and receiving cables are connected in the termination boxes for distributing data over a large branched communication network. To achieve the objective, the fibre optic termination boxes are designed with combinations of fibre optic adapters, splitters and connectors. Further, these optical fibre cable termination boxes include various cable entry ports for feeder cable entry. These cable entry ports include round shaped PG glands for cable entry. Further, these fibre optic cable termination boxes are installed at a certain height from the ground.

[0003] The optical fibre cables from these termination boxes are taken out by rotating the PG glands to take the cable out and then rotating the glands and tighten the same. However, these fibre optic termination boxes installed at a certain height are prone to free fall of PG glands when handled by unskilled labors. This increases the installation time for the labors and impacts the quality of deployment of these termination boxes.
[0004] In light of the above, there is a need for a light weight, environmentally robust fibre optic termination enclosure with simplified installation practices that overcomes the above stated disadvantages.
