Abstract:
A fiber panel system includes a chassis and at least blades configured to mount to the chassis. Each blade is moveable relative to the chassis between a retracted (closed) position and at least one extended position. Cable slack is managed at the front and/or rear of each chassis to facilitate movement of the blades without pulling or bending the cables beyond a maximum bend limit. Each blade may be locked into one or more positions relative to the chassis.
Abstract:
A fiber panel system includes a chassis including a backplane; and at least a first blade configured to mount to the chassis. The first blade is moveable relative t the chassis between a retracted (closed) position and at least one extended position. The first blade includes a coupler arrangement for connecting together media segments. Each blade includes a blade processor and a plurality of smart couplers. A chassis processor is electrically coupled to a processor port of the chassis backplane.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a cable retention bracket including four sides defining an interior for containing fiber optic cables. One of the sides defines a pivoting closure member that defines a hinge axis generally transverse to the direction of cables passing through the cable retention bracket. At least one of the sides includes a curved surface defining a cable radius limiter surface for providing bend radius protection for the cables. The various sides are made from a sheet metal construction. The cable retention bracket is usable in a variety of panels, trays, and drawers for managing telecommunications cables. A cable clamp includes two threaded sockets, a pad member and an elongated cover positioned over the pad member, with first and second threaded fasteners mounting the cover over the pad member.
Abstract:
A fiber optic telecommunications device includes a rack for mounting a plurality of chassis, each chassis including a plurality of trays slidably mounted thereon and arranged in a vertically stacked arrangement. Each tray includes fiber optic connection locations and a cable manager coupled to the tray and also coupled to the chassis, the cable manager for routing cables to and from the fiber optic connection locations and defining a plurality of link arms pivotally connected such that the manager retracts and extends with a corresponding movement of the tray, wherein the link arms pivot relative to each other to prevent cables managed therein from being bent in an arc having a radius of curvature less than a predetermined value, each link arm defining a top wall, a bottom wall, and two oppositely positioned sidewalls, each link arm defining an open portion along at least one of the sidewalls and an open portion along the top wall for receiving cables therein, the open portions along the top wall and the at least one of the sidewalls communicating with each other.
