Abstract
An aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a connector collar for a fiber optic closure. The connector collar is insertable into a cavity at a base of the fiber optic closure. The connector collar includes a shaft extending along a longitudinal axis, the shaft forming a passage extending from a first end and a second end. The passage is configured to receive an optical ground wire (OPGW) cable therethrough. The shaft forms a plurality of flanges extending outward along a radial axis to inhibit movement of the collar within the base along the longitudinal axis. The shaft forms a groove configured to position the connector collar relative to the base of the fiber optic closure.
