1. GENERAL INTRODUCTION

1.1. Document Purpose

This document provides general information for the CMPH-950DFNCU multi-purpose housing. Figure 1 shows a closed front view of the
enclosure.
Hereafter, the Charles Universal Broadband Enclosure CMPH-950DFNCU will be referred to as the "CMPH."

1.2. Product Purpose

The CMPH is a non-metallic, three-piece, rectangular, OSP enclosure that offers easy installation, superior structural strength, 360⁰
technician access, generous internal equipment and cable storage capacity, and protection against corrosion, floods, fire, weather, dirt,
insects, intrusion, dents and impacts.

1.3. Product Mounting and Location

The CMPH is an above-grade enclosure. The base is typically installed in a trench or hole in the ground up to the base's ground line
indicator. The ribbed or corrugated base walls provide stability in most soil types. The 2-section dome mounts on the base and protects all
equipment installed or mounted inside the CMPH. Stake mounting is achieved by attaching a stake at the center of the interior side walls.
Detailed mounting and installation information is covered in Section 3.
