Abstract

A communication line connecting box for connecting communication lines, such as telecommunication wires or network lines, includes: a base; a cover hinged on the base; and a connector module installed in the cavity formed between the base and the cover. The cover can be swung to a position for exposure of the connector module by the user without using a tool. The user can easily connect the communication lines to the connecting box. There are some inlets formed on four sides and the bottom of the base for leading the lines to the connector module. The connecting box can further be attached with identification labels on the front surface of the cover for easier identification of the communication lines. The connecting box can be engaged on a supporting frame according to some mounting requirements. Therefore, a connecting box which is easy to use is provided.
