Summary: | A port entry device (100) is described for inserting a telecommunication cable (60) containing optical fibers into a telecommunications enclosure (300). In particular, the port entry device (100) is an oval port sealing device. The port entry device includes a tubular housing (110), a split sleeve (130) and a pair of clamping nuts (120). The tubular housing has an interior passageway (113) between a first end (110a) of the housing and a second end (110b) of the housing. The interior passageway can include a first cable channel (111) and a second cable channel (112). The housing can have an elliptical cross section. The split sleeve (130) positions the telecommunication cable (60) within the port entry device (100) when the split sleeve (130) is inserted into the interior passageway (113) of the housing (110). The clamping nuts are attachable to the second end (110b) of the housing to secure the split sleeve (130) within the housing (110). |
