Phone booth box?

[ex-x-fire]

I found this little box at the Restore store, it measures about 5.5"X3.5"X1.75" & has these "out of service" stickers all over. Its a pretty heave gauge box. It has 2 knock out plugs for something. I might make it into a tool box or to hold survival gear, like an altoids tin.

That's a 25-pair telephone cable junction box for enclosing two RJ21 (50-pin) connectors.

I'm a sucker for small metal boxes. Would have probably picked it up too. They are always handy for something.

Thanks, they let me have it for a buck.

The box is neat and I would also want one (several) like it.

Where can I get those stickers though?

They had similar boxes for housing multi-line protectors and wiring. I probably have one somewhere.

They were used in small offices sometimes to enclose a breakout cable connection instead of installing a punchdown block.

Dad retired from ATT.

Back in the day scrap metal was a nuisance he brought home lots of cool stuff.

I have a nice collection of protectors and carbons from over the years.
