Ah HAH! I knew I was on the right track there Ken. Thanks, Bill for verifying my "guess" at how it worked. PIC was the norm by the time I entered this business, and since I never worked for a Telco, I never worked with pulp. I just have seen it when opening abandoned splices in old buildings. Most else I know is just from research and just asking questions, like Jeff. Maybe he will be the next Ed!

Hey, Jeff, if you want to see one of the old lead-sheath stubbed cable terminals, I still have about ten of them (new in box) and I will give you one if you want to pay for shipping. Unfortunately, it's a newer one that has PIC cable pairs, not pulp. If you want one, just let me know and I will send you one.
