Abstract: A panel system includes a chassis holding one or more tray arrangements, which are each configured to receive one or more cassettes at two or more bays. The tray arrangements and cassettes cooperate to define a cassette sensor arrangement and a port occupancy sensor arrangement having separate interface points. The cassette sensor arrangement may include electronic memory storing physical layer information about the cassette. All active components of the port occupancy sensor arrangement are disposed on the tray while the electronic memories of the cassette sensor arrangement are stored on the cassettes.

Abstract: A telecommunications wall fixture includes a body configured for mounting to a wall, the body defining a mounting surface generally parallel to the wall when mounted. A cable storage spool is rotatably mounted to the body for storage and deployment of cable. A device is used for re-orienting the rotation axis of the spool from being generally perpendicular to the mounting surface to being generally non-perpendicular to the mounting surface, wherein the spool is configured such that the spool can be stored within the body when the spool is oriented to have the rotation axis generally perpendicular to the mounting surface.

Abstract: A bladed chassis system facilitates installation of the bladed chassis system and replacement of the blades at the chassis. Blades can be inserted and removed from the front and/or the rear of the bladed chassis system at the discretion of the user. Blades can be moved between discrete positions. In examples, blades can be one-handedly released from the chassis to allow movement between discrete positions. In examples, accidental movement past a discrete position is inhibited. Accidental removal of the blades from the chassis is inhibited. The chassis and blades cooperate to manage the optical fiber cables routed through a cable port in the chassis to the blades.

Abstract: A fiber optic latency module including at least two spools, each storing a known length of optical fiber with one end positioned on the inside and the other end positioned on the outside of the spool. A splice optically couples the two lengths of fiber, and a splice holder is provided to hold the splice. The splice holder can be positioned within the spool core of either spool. The first length of optical fiber is wound around the first spool in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, from the outside end to the inside end, while the second length of optical fiber is wound around the second spool in the opposite direction, from the inside end to the outside end. The module is designed to ensure consistent latency between different components of a fiber optic network or system by adding a predetermined amount of latency to fiber optic networks.

Abstract: A cable anchor assembly includes a housing that receives adhesive through a fill inlet to secure a cable relative to the housing. The cable enters and exits the housing through first and second gaskets that hold the adhesive within the housing during filling and curing. Various components enable the orientation of the fill inlet relative to the housing to be changed. In some cases, the fill inlet is defined by the housing. In other examples, the fill inlet is defined by the housing in cooperation with a guide member. In still other cases, the fill inlet is defined by one of the gaskets.

Abstract: A fiber optic cassette may include a cassette body defining a front end, a rear end, and an enclosed interior. Multiple identical apertures are included on the front end of the cassette body, where each aperture is configured to accept a fiber optic adapter. The cassette may further include an optical component located in an enclosed interior of the cassette body and configured to process a signal received from a fiber optic connector coupled to one of the fiber optic adapters, a crimp tube mounted to the front end of the cassette body, and at least one fiber optic cable attached to the crimp tube, extending from the cassette and configured to carry the signal processed by the optical component. The fiber optic cable may include a jacket, a strength member crimped to the crimp tube, and optical fibers extending past the crimp tube into the interior of the cassette body, wherein the mounting structure for mounting the crimp tube to the cassette body is receivable within one of the identical apertures.

Abstract: This disclosure is related to a fiber optic distribution system including a telecommunications enclosure. In one aspect, the telecommunications enclosure can include a main body and a cover that together define an interior cavity. A first tray and a second tray can be mounted within the interior cavity. The first tray can be configured to hold a fiber optic splitter and to include cable management features. The second tray can be configured with a termination feature for connecting cables extending from the splitter to cables that can be distributed to individual locations remote from the enclosure, such as individual dwelling units.

Abstract: An equipment panel includes one or more trays disposed within a chassis. Each tray has a two-layer termination region. Certain trays have a two-layer splice region. The splice region can be used to optically couple preterminated fibers within the tray to a trunk cable. Alternatively or in addition, the splice region can be used to fix broken fiber connections. A cable anchor and fanout arrangement mounts to the chassis as a unit.
