A splitter card having integral test access devices. The splitter card allows test access to be readily provided at any location where splitter cards are typically mounted (e.g., a splitter chassis).

Splitter card with integral test access

A splitter card including a circuit board on which line, data and voice connectors are mounted. The connectors include contacts electrically connected to termination posts that extend through the circuit board such that ends of the termination posts are exposed. A plurality of splitters are connected to the circuit board for splitting composite signals into voice and data signals. The circuit board includes conductive paths for directing composite signals from the line connector to the splitters, for directing voice signals from the splitters to the voice connectors, and for directing data signals from the splitters to the data connectors. Dielectric insulator members are connected to the circuit board to cover the exposed ends of the termination posts.

A front access splitter assembly that fully supports lifeline POTS and lifeline ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) service requirements is shown and described in this disclosure.

Splitter device for MDU/MTU environments

A cable management bracket for a telecommunications rack. The bracket includes an elongated member having a length sized to extend across a width of the rack. A plurality of fingers project outwardly from the elongated member. The fingers are spaced apart along the length of the elongated member. Gaps sized to receive telecommunications cables are positioned between the fingers. Bend radius limiters are preferably connected to the fingers to prevent cables passing through the gaps from being bent beyond predetermined bend radius requirements.

A testing device provides pin height, continuity, and concentricity testing for coaxial connectors and cables. The testing device provides connector jacks with support shafts that properly align and stabilize the connectors during testing. Circuitry is provided to indicate if the pin height is sufficient, if the cable is an open circuit, a short circuit, or has an adequate continuity, and if the center pin of the connector is sufficiently concentric with the outer sleeve. The jacks may have an outer surface with slots providing a slip fit configuration that allows the coaxial connector to be easily inserted and removed.

Device for testing coaxial connectors

A protective panel for use in a splitter chassis is described in this disclosure. The protective panel is configured to at least partially cover a splitter card that would otherwise be exposed but for the presence of the panel.
