These manhole covers, informally known as "quads," may be found in towns and cities throughout New Zealand. They cover an underground cable pit, known as a distribution pit or jointing chamber where copper telephone cables were spliced. With the withdrawal of copper cable infrastructure, some pits have been re-purposed for fibre-optic cables, while others are now effectively unused.
