Abstract

A water-proof housing for a telecommunications terminal. The housing has a body portion and a hinged closure portion, hinge elements on the body portion and on the closure portion being configured to permit linear sliding movement of the closure longitudinally of an axis to a predetermined position and pivotal movement of the closure portion relative to the body portion when the closure portion is in a predetermined position relative to the body portion. A tongue formed by spaced tabs, one of the tabs being longer than the other tabs is sliceable through a guideway in a channel member on the closure portion of the housing such that when the long tab is aligned with a corresponding opening in the channel member, the closure portion of the housing can be rotated about the axis.
