    Abstract: A telecommunications module defines an interior with separate right and left chambers. An optical component is housed within the left chamber. Signal input and output locations are exposed to the right chamber. The right chamber allows excess fiber to accumulate without bending in a radius smaller than a minimum bend radius. A dual-layered cable management structure is positioned within the right chamber that defines a lower cable-wrapping level and a separate upper cable-wrapping level. The upper cable-wrapping level is defined by a removable cable retainer mounted on a spool defining the lower-cable wrapping level. Cabling carrying the input and output signals are passed between the right and left chambers before and after being processed by the optical component.

    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: A telecommunications module comprises a housing including a main housing portion defining an interior formed by first and second sidewalls, a bottom wall, a front wall, and a rear wall. A removable cover mounts to the main housing to define a top wall. The interior defines separate right and left chambers. A fiber optic component is housed within the left chamber. A signal input location for receiving an input signal for processing by the component and a signal output location for exiting an output signal are both exposed to the right chamber, wherein both the signal input and output locations are defined by the front wall. Cables carrying the input and output signals are fixed via crimp assemblies at the signal input and output locations. An excess fiber length formed when an outer jacket of the cables contracts more than the fiber due to temperature variations is accommodated by the right chamber to allow the excess fiber length to accumulate without bending in a radius smaller than a minimum bend radius. A dual-layered cable management structure is positioned within the right chamber that defines a lower cable-wrapping level and a separate upper cable-wrapping level, wherein the upper cable-wrapping level is defined by a removable cable retainer mounted on a spool defining the lower-cable wrapping level, the structure including both the cable carrying the input signal and the cable carrying the output signal wrapped therearound. The cable carrying the input signal and the cable carrying the output signal are passed between the right chamber and the left chamber before and after being processed by the fiber optic component, respectively, wherein at least one of the rear wall, the first sidewall, and the second sidewall defines a curved portion for providing bend radius protection to the cables carrying the input and output signals.

    Abstract: A cable assembly for optical monitoring is assembled by laying optical fibers into an adhesive layer on a substrate to form an optical circuit. First ends of the fibers are arranged in various groups and second ends of the fibers are arranged in various groups. Groups at a first end of the circuit are spliced to coupler input fibers and coupler output fibers. Groups at the second end of the circuit are terminated at one or more input connectors, one or more output connectors, and one or more monitoring connectors. Some cable assemblies monitor signals received at the input connectors. Other cable assemblies monitor signals received at both the input connectors and the output connectors.

    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.
