A front facing line terminal block assembly for a telecommunications network has an external housing mountable to a frame and a field block housing pivotally mounted to the external housing. The field block housing mounts a field block bearing a plurality of wire connectors. The external housing is capable of accepting the field block housing. A first set of retention elements is capable of positively locking the field block frame in a first, retracted position. A second set of retention elements is capable of positively locking the field block housing in a second pivotally rotated position wherein it is rotated outwardly of the external housing. An access door is pivotally mounted to the field block housing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION A general object of the present invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly for use in a telecommunications network which is more durable than other, currently available terminal block assemblies.
A more specific object of the invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly having a rotatable field block and means for positively retaining the field block in definite positions.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly which provides greater resistance to back plane wire pressure than other, currently available terminal block assemblies.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly having an access door pivotally attached in such a manner as not to interfere with field block rotation.
An additional object of the invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly having improved mounting means for mounting the terminal block to a network bay frame or the like.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a front-facing line terminal block assembly having an access door which is removable from the terminal block only after concerted effort.
A front facing line terminal block assembly, constructed according to the teachings of the present invention, useful in a telecommunications network has an external housing mountable to a frame and a field block housing pivotally mounted to the external housing.
The field block housing has a field block bearing a plurality of wire connectors.
A first set of retention means capable of positively locking the field block frame in a retracted position, and a second set of retention means capable of positively locking the field block frame in a first pivotally rotated position are provided.
An access door is pivotally mounted to the field block housing.
