Patent ID: 8917966

Claim:
An enclosure system for receiving a cable, comprising: an enclosure having an inner chamber and an open position exposing the inner chamber and a closed position covering the inner chamber; a cable receiving port in a wall of the enclosure and extending along a longitudinal axis from outside of the enclosure into the inner chamber, wherein the cable receiving port is configured to receive a cable therein when the cable is advanced axially into the port without rotation of the cable when the enclosure is in the closed position; a mating member associated with the cable receiving port that limits rotation of the cable when the cable is advanced axially into the port; an axial retention member associated with the cable receiving port that is configured to limit axial movement of the cable out of the port responsive to advancement of the cable axially into the port without rotation of the cable; and a cable plug, wherein the cable plug comprises: a body member configured to receive the cable therein and having a sealing portion that is configured to form an environmental seal with the cable receiving port when the cable is advanced axially into the port; an anti-rotation member that is configured to mate with the mating member associated with the cable receiving port to limit rotation of the cable plug when the cable is advanced axially into the port; and an engagement member that is configured to mate with the axial retention member associated with the cable receiving port when the cable is advanced axially into the port to a lock position to limit axial movement of the cable out of the port, wherein the body member includes a substantially cylindrical portion that is received in the cable receiving port, wherein the cylindrical portion has an outer diameter that is less than an inner diameter of the cable receiving port and wherein the anti-rotation member of the cable plug comprises a protrusion on the cylindrical portion that has an outer diameter that is greater than the inner diameter of the cable receiving port and wherein the mating member associated with the cable receiving port comprises a cutaway of the cable receiving port that has an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the protrusion, wherein the protrusion is received in the cutaway when the plug is in the lock position to limit rotational movement of the plug and wherein the engagement member comprises a transverse slot in the cylindrical portion of the body member at an end proximate the inner chamber when the plug is in the cable receiving port.
