Accessories for Copper Closures and Terminals
3M offers a variety of Closure and Terminal Accessories for K&B Vault and Riser Closures, Better Buried Closures, SLiC™ and GATM™ Closures and Terminals.

Aerial Copper Closures and Terminals
Above ground outside plant, usually associated with a strand or pole-mount application.

Direct Buried
Below ground application, a non-ducted system, i.e. Buried Plant or Pedestal Plant.

Multi-pair Dual IDC Terminal Blocks
3M’s unique dual-IDC (insulation displacement connector) approach promotes a gas-tight connection no matter what size wire is being terminated. With two connectors instead of just one, the system terminal easily accommodates a wider range of wire sizes-18 to 24 (1.0-0.5mm) AWG – than any ordinary single connector design.

Underground
Below ground in the outside plant, associated with a ducted system, i.e. Manhole, Handhole, etc.

Vault
This application is associated with products which are inside a central office or inside a building.
