Compact distribution enclosure configured to provide enhanced connectivity and access to an interior of the enclosure

A cable distribution enclosure configured to provide enhanced connectivity and access to an interior of the enclosure, comprising:

• a first body portion having a port portion structurally configured to receive a fiber optic cable passing through the port portion from an exterior of the first body portion to an interior of the first body portion;
• a second body portion hingedly coupled with the first body portion;
• a tray portion configured to be disposed in and pivotally coupled with the first body portion;
• wherein the second body portion is configured to rotate relative to the first body portion between a closed position to form an enclosure and an open position in which the second body portion is rotated away from the first body portion to permit access to the tray portion;
• wherein the tray portion includes a first side portion facing the first body portion and a second side portion facing the second body portion;
• wherein the tray portion includes a knockout portion configured to be removed from the tray portion to provide an access portion through the tray portion from the second side portion to the first side portion;
• wherein the first side portion includes a holding portion configured to hold a fiber optic splitter and a first splice portion configured to retain fiber optic splice connections;
• wherein the second side portion includes a second splice portion configured to retain fiber optic splice connections between optical fiber pigtails extending through the access portion from the first side portion and an optical fiber drop cable extending through the port portion of the first body portion;
• wherein the first body portion is configured to receive a fiber optic splitter module such that an input port and output ports of the fiber optic splitter module extend through the access portion so as to permit connectors of preterminated fiber optic drop cables to be coupled with the input port and the outport ports;
• and
• wherein the tray portion is structurally configured to permit a user to configure the enclosure with a fiber optic splitter module held by the first side portion and having the input port and the output ports extending through the access portion so as to permit preterminated fiber optic drop cables that extend through the port portion to an exterior of the enclosure to be coupled with the input port and the outport ports of the fiber optic splitter module without accessing the first side portion of the tray portion, and to alternatively configure the enclosure with fiber optic pigtails that extend from the first side portion through the access portion to the second splice portion so as to permit fiber optic drop cables that extend through the port portion to an exterior of the enclosure to be coupled with the fiber optic pigtails at the second splice portion without accessing the first side portion of the tray portion so as to enhance connectivity of the fiber optic enclosure.
