Abstract
A cable splice case for communications cables comprises a two part outer shell, divided perforate end plates, and a cable collar for each cable end. The cable collar is grooved to receive an end plate gasket. A preferred form of cable collar is in two parts and fits together over a mastic winding between two washers on the cable to form a hermetically sealed cable end structure which is retained during reentry of the splice area. Details of gasket, tie bar, and strain relief structure are given.
