A protected telecommunications test adapter for use in troubleshooting telephone networks. The test adapter plugs into an industry standard panel and provides access to the network wiring via an RJ,connector or clip posts. The test adapter has a surge protector to protect both user and equipment. The test adapter is of a modular enclosed housing design for portability and low manufacturing cost. Since the test adapter is intended for temporary test installation, its dimension is designed for ease of removal, installation, and access to the test connector or posts.

Protected telecommunication test adapter module

A telecommunications equipment enclosure, designed to be placed outdoors at a remote location, houses equipment to provide a large number of voice channels, an AC power supply, an AC/DC distribution panel, protector panels, a back-up battery plant, multiplexers, a fiber distribution panel, and a separate cable splice area. Other equipment may also be housed in the enclosure if needed. The enclosure is configurable to customers' requirements, and is extremely small and densely packed relative to its channel capacity.
