Abstract

A mounting for a digital service line repeater comprises a housing having a base and a removable cover, electrical components for electrically connecting the line repeater to signal wires, and a fastening device for removably attaching the base of another mounting to the removable cover. The fastening device includes a threaded hole in the cover for receiving a fastener, and the base includes an aperture aligned with the threaded hole for receiving a fastener. The mounting can be stacked on and mounted to a second similar mounting by a fastener passing through the aperture in the base for receipt in the threaded hole in the cover of the second mounting. The cover is removably attached to the base by accessible fasteners at the side walls, and the base includes a slot for receiving the line repeater. The electrical components include an electrical connector at one end of the slot for electrically connecting with the line repeater, and an easy connect wire connector having clamping terminals for electrically and mechanically connecting with signal wires.
