An enclosure for protect a cabling junction or transition point on a cell tower is described. In particular, the exemplary cell tower enclosure provides an interconnection platform for both optical and electrical conductors. The cell tower enclosure includes a cover and a base configured attachable to an open first end of the cover to provide an enclosed configuration. The base has a plurality of cable ports passing through the base to allow passage cables into and out of the enclosure. The enclosure also includes a cable management device. The cable management device has two longitudinal edges disposed between two rounded bend control portions oriented at each end of the cable management device and a plurality of optical fiber connector adapters secured along at least one of the longitudinal edges, wherein the cable management device is connected to the base by a support frame.
