Abstract
The invention relates to a cable support (6,7,8) for distribution boxes (1), in particular for FTTH environments, the cable support (6,7,8) comprising at least one cable passage (6d, 7d, 8d), the cable passage (6d,7d,8d) adapted to receive at least one cable (19). Further, the invention relates to a distribution box (1) for cable distribution arrangements, in particular for FTTH environments, comprising a housing (2) and a cable support (6,7,8), the cable support (6,7,8) comprising a plurality of cable passages (6d,7d,8d), each cable passage (6d,7d,8d) adapted to receive at least one cable (19). To facilitate the maintenance of distribution systems and the installation of additional cables, the cable support (6,7,8) is a stackable modular assembly of at least two segment blocks (6a,6b,6c,7a,7b,7c,8a,8b,8c), each of which form, at a respective end (31,32) thereof pointing in or against a stacking direction (S), a part of at least one cable passage (6d,7d,8d).
