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.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to structures and configurations for breaking out fibers from cables and/or securing the ends of protective mesh sleeves to other structures such as brackets, cables and trays/cassettes. The mesh sleeves can be adapted to protect optical fibers that pass therethrough. In one example, a mesh sleeve can be secured to another structure by an anchor including a reinforcing insert that fits in the mesh sleeve and a clamping housing that mounts over the mesh sleeve.

Abstract: A cable conduit can be unrolled from a reel and cut to length and includes longitudinal sections of a mounting portion and a covering portion that form an openable and closable channel therebetween, the mounting portion and covering portion being coupled together by a connector. In some examples, a support leg is provided to prop up the covering portion when the channel is mounted and in an open configuration.

Abstract: An optical module includes a housing; an optical adapter arrangement disposed at the housing; a cable inlet leading from an exterior of the housing to the interior of the housing; and a splice location disposed within the interior of the housing. Optical pigtails extend from the optical adapter arrangement to the splice location. Certain types of modules have a removable splice tray having a bend radius limiting arrangement surrounding multiple splice channels. Certain types of modules have first and second chambers separated by a wall defining a pass-through aperture.

Abstract: A panel system includes a front door attached to a chassis by a living hinge. In certain examples, the door also is pivotally attached to the living hinge. The living hinge components can snap-fit to the front door and/or to the chassis. The panel system also may have a mounting bracket that attaches to the chassis without tools to hold the chassis at a rack. The mounting bracket may be mounted at any of multiple predetermined positions along the depth of the chassis.

Abstract: A cable anchor includes an anchor mounting structure and a cable mounting structure. The anchor mounting structure can releasably mount to a support plate along either of two paths. The cable mounting structure secures one or more cables to the cable anchor. Some example cable mounting structures are configured to receive wrap-style fasteners to hold cables. Other example cable mounting structures include fanout bodies configured to receive epoxy. Other example cable mounting structures include cavities configured to engage overmolded retention features of a cable.

Abstract: A panel arrangement provides at least 288 output fiber connections within 1 rack unit (RU). The panel arrangement includes modules mounted within a chassis. Each module carries a plurality of optical adapters, which each define multiple de-mateable connection interface locations. In certain examples, each connection interface location enables a connection between multiple pairs of optical fibers. A WDM or other optical circuitry may be provided within the module to optically couple an input connection interface location to output connection interface locations.
