An improved closure assembly for retaining fiber optic cables is disclosed wherein the closure assembly includes end plates having apertures for supporting the cables at the location of entry into the closure assembly. A unique gripping device is provided for retaining each cable with respect to the end plates, whereby sufficient force is applied to the cable to provide water-tight sealing at the junction of the cable and the end plate, yet with sufficient distribution of the force to avoid straining or distorting the cable. A unique optical fiber splice tray is disclosed having pivotal connectors at either end to permit attaching the trays in stacked relation, yet providing pivotal movement of each tray relative to the next adjacent tray, from either end. The trays include unique "V"-shaped integral fingers for retaining the individual optical fibers while permitting ready removal and reinsertion of the fibers for servicing of the closure assembly or the fibers.
