Problems solved by technology

Therefore, a sheath that is rigid enough to withstand the required external pressure tends to break or crumble when subjected to impact requirements because it is too rigid, while a sheath that is resilient enough to withstand the required impact force will be damaged when subjected to both impact and external pressure. Frequent severe deflection when required, which can cause damage to internal components

Abstract

An enclosure includes a housing longitudinally extending from an open first end to a closed second end. The housing defines an internal cavity extending in the longitudinal direction, the internal cavity having a circumference in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. A base member is configured for separable attachment to the open first end of the housing to provide an enclosed configuration. A support frame is secured to the base member and extends longitudinally within the internal cavity of the housing in the enclosed configuration. The support frame includes at least one portion that provides support about substantially the entire circumference of the internal cavity at a location between the first end and the second end of the housing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to jackets for communication cables. More particularly, the present invention relates to jackets for containing telecommunication lines and telecommunication line splices. Background technique [0002] Communication cables are ubiquitous and are used to transmit all kinds of data in vast networks. Although the use of fiber optic cables in telecommunication systems is growing rapidly due to the increasing amount of data being transmitted, the majority of cables are still conductive cables (usually copper). Communication cables typically consist of a bundle of separate communication wires (optical fiber or copper wires) encased in a protective sheath. As communication cables are routed across data networks, it is necessary to periodically strip the cables to splice one or more of the communication lines in order to distribute data onto other cables or into "branches" of the communication network . Cable branche...
