Abstract

A fiber optic terminal having a perimeter seal includes a base and a cover connected to the base between opened and closed positions. The base and cover define an interior volume having a perimeter in which fiber optic components are disposed. The fiber optic terminal further includes a rigid member extending from one of the base or cover and a flexible rib extending from the other of the base or cover. Each of the rigid member and flexible rib is configured to partially bound the interior volume along a portion of the perimeter. When the cover is in the closed position, the flexible rib engages the rigid member to form a seal around the portion of the perimeter to protect the fiber optic components. A method of manufacturing the fiber optic terminal and a method of using the fiber optic terminal having the perimeter seal are also disclosed.
