Abstract
An end cap for a telecommunications enclosure has a plurality of cable receptacle tubes and a pair of pivotally mounted legs. The legs are mounted on an outside surface of the end cap. The legs are pivotable to positions in which they prevent the end cap from rolling. The legs can be pivoted to a position in which the legs fit within the perimeter of the end cap. Each leg may be shaped substantially as an arc of a circle, in which case the legs can be pivoted to a position where the legs fit in an annular region between the plurality of cable receptacle tubes and an outer edge of the end cap. Each leg includes a detente mechanism to maintain the leg in a desired position.
