Patent ID: 11789210

Abstract:
A hybrid optical power distribution box comprises a wall and one or more apertures in the wall, each aperture having a receiving area, one or more optical adapters for optical connectors, the optical adapters being attached to the hybrid optical power distribution box, each optical adapter extending along an optical direction between a first optical portion configured to be connected to an optical connector and a second optical portion inside the hybrid optical power distribution box, each second optical portion having an optical cross-sectional area configured to be inserted inside an aperture; one or more power adapters for electrical power connectors, the power adapters being attached to the hybrid optical power distribution box, each power adapter extending along a power direction between a first power portion configured to be connected to a power connector and a second power portion inside the hybrid optical power distribution box, each second power portion having a power cross-sectional area configured to be inserted inside an aperture. The optical cross-sectional area of the optical adapters matches with the power cross-sectional area of the power adapters and the receiving area of the apertures is configured to match with the optical cross-sectional area of the optical adapters and with the power cross-sectional area of the power adapters.
