Abstract: A cable mount for fixing a strength member of a fiber optic cable to a fixture includes a front end, a rear end, and a longitudinal channel therebetween, the channel defined by upper and lower transverse walls and a vertical divider wall. The channel receives a portion of the cable. A strength member pocket receives the strength member of the cable, the pocket located on an opposite side of the divider wall from the longitudinal channel, the pocket communicating with the longitudinal channel through an opening on the divider wall. A strength member clamp fixes the strength member of the cable against axial pull. Cable management structures in the form of spools define at least one notch that communicates with the longitudinal channel for guiding optical fibers extending from a jacket either upwardly or downwardly therethrough. The cable mount also allows routing of the optical fibers through the longitudinal channel all the way from the rear end to the front end.

Abstract: A universal mounting mechanism for mounting a telecommunications chassis to a telecommunications fixture includes a mounting bracket defining a rear portion for mounting to the fixture and a front portion for slidably receiving the chassis, the front portion including a latch opening. A locking spring is configured for mounting to the chassis, the spring configured to flex laterally to snap in to the latch opening. A release handle is configured to be slidably mounted to the chassis, the release handle defining a deflection tab for moving the locking spring out of the latch opening when the handle is slid rearward to forward. A cover is configured to be mounted to the chassis, the cover defining a deflection ramp for interacting with the deflection tab of the handle to move the deflection tab laterally to contact the spring when the release handle is slid.

Abstract: Aspects and techniques of the present disclosure relate to a telecommunications optical fiber management tray that provides enhanced access to connectors and adapters. In one example, a fiber optic telecommunications tray is disclosed which has movable components that can configure the tray between a storage position and an access position. In the storage position, one or more fiber optic connectors and a fiber containment wall extending from a base of the tray are positioned such that a port of a connector mounted to the tray has a longitudinal axis that passes through the fiber containment wall. In the access position, the one or more fiber optic connectors and the fiber containment wall are position such that the connector port longitudinal axis does not pass through the fiber containment wall. In the access position, adapters can be inserted or removed from the tray-mounted connectors without a line-of-sight obstruction from the fiber containment wall.
