Access panel and fanning strip for telephone distribution frame

摘要

A side access panel and associated rear fanning strip for enclosing the otherwise open side of a telephone distribution frame connector assembly. The fanning strip interconnects a rear facing edge of the access panel to a rear edge portion of assembly without the use of fasteners. An engaging means such as a clamping strip may also be included as part of the access panel to engage a front facing edge of the assembly to provide a more secure mounting of the panel over the open side.
