>From Milennium. We have been putting FTC11 media converters in these. looking at mouting the UBNT ONT in them instead for this year. We mount it to the back on an angle, store a couple loops of slack drop cable around the perimieter of the box. We terminate the fiber into an LC connector directly so do not use a splice tray. There would probably be room for a small splice tray if you wanted.
