The selectable covers can vary, for example, with respect to size, shape, and number arrangement, and configuration of ports to provide for different selectable combinations of module assemblies.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 - 27 . (canceled) 
     
     
         28 . A telecommunications enclosure system, comprising:
 a frame including a top, a bottom, a front, a back, and opposing sides which together define: an interior volume, an opening at the top of the frame, a port at the back of the frame configured to receive a non-connectorized portion of a cable, and additional openings;   a first cover covering one of the additional openings, the first cover including at least one port for receiving one or more connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers;   a second cover covering the other of the additional openings, the second cover including at least one port for receiving one or more connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers; and   a lid defining a lid interior volume and ports for receiving connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers, the lid closing the opening in the top of the frame and thereby extending the interior volume of the frame according to the lid interior volume.   
     
     
         29 . The telecommunications enclosure system of  claim 28 , wherein the lid includes plugs adapted to removably plug the ports of the lid. 
     
     
         30 . The telecommunications enclosure system of  claim 28 , including one or more optical elements disposed within the interior volume that provide for one or more of: optical fiber indexing, optical signal splitting, and/or optical fiber splicing capabilities. 
     
     
         31 . The telecommunications enclosure system of  claim 28 , wherein one or more of the ports is adapted to receive a ruggedized multi-fiber connector. 
     
     
         32 . The telecommunications enclosure system of  claim 28 , wherein the lid includes a first cable seal. 
     
     
         33 . The telecommunications enclosure system of  claim 32 , wherein the lid includes a second cable seal at a different side of the frame from the first cable seal. 
     
     
         34 . A telecommunications enclosure system, comprising:
 a frame including a top, a bottom, a front, a back, and opposing sides which together define: an interior volume, an opening at the top of the frame, a port at the back of the frame configured to receive a non-connectorized portion of a cable, and additional openings;   a first cover covering one of the additional openings, the first cover including at least one port for receiving one or more connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers;   a second cover covering the other of the additional openings, the second cover including at least one port for receiving one or more connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers; and   a lid defining a lid interior volume and ports for receiving connectorizing elements of one or more optical fibers, the lid closing the opening in the top of the frame and thereby extending the interior volume of the frame according to the lid interior volume,   wherein the lid includes plugs adapted to removably plug the ports of the lid; and   wherein the frame defines a port for receiving a cable.
