Wall box adapted to be mounted at a mid-span access location of a telecommunications cable

A wall box comprising:

• an enclosure having:
• a base;
• a cover pivotally connected to the base, wherein the base and the cover cooperate to enclose an interior region of the enclosure;
• a hinge assembly for pivotally connecting the cover to the base, the hinge assembly including at least one pin member and a plurality of hinge portions, each hinge portion having a free end including a hook portion defining an opening that is adapted to selectively receive the at least one pin member, the hook portions defining gaps between adjacent hook portions;
• a retention member adapted to retain the pin member in the opening of the hinge portion, the retention member being a resilient member having a first end portion and an oppositely disposed second end portion that selectively flexes about the first end portion, wherein the second end portion blocks at least a portion of the opening in a relaxed position to retain the pin member in the opening, wherein the second end portion of the retention member is generally aligned with a gap defined between two adjacent hook portions;
• and
• a plurality of fiber optic adapters mounted to the enclosure, wherein the fiber optic adapters include an inner port positioned inside the interior region and an outer port positioned at an outer surface of the enclosure.
