Abstract
A closure (100) facilitates upgrading a network to extend optical fibers closer to, or all the way to, the subscribers by facilitating the transition between optical signals to electrical signals. The closure includes a base (110) and a cover (120) defining an interior; and a circuit board (130) disposed within the interior. A management tray (140) can be coupled to the base. The circuit board (130) includes the optoelectronic circuitry. The management tray (140) includes a platform (141) disposed between the circuit board (130) and the cover (120). Various types of fiber and electrical cable sub-assemblies (160) can be received at a port (113) defined in the closure.
