breakout Box

Note from asker:
Sounds better than bursting box, confusing as different manufacturers do use different language. Presumably lots of this stuff has been translated from Chinese to japanes to german to ???? and as with Chinese whispers some details are lost. have a good afternoon, Chris.
Peer comment(s):

agree Tony M : I think this expression, which we've used for years, started off in EN and has not had to pass via the Far East! But of course, it was used originally in 'traditional' technology, long before fibre optic was dreamt of.
