Abstract:
The present invention provides modular trays having cutout features that are configured to engage with a mounting feature of one or more removable rails. The removable rails may be removably secured to a tray body in a plurality of positions to allow a user to install or uninstall rails to support different sized fiber optic modules. For example, a tray may support a twenty-four optical fiber module, two twelve optical fiber modules, or three eight optical fiber modules. Fiber optic enclosures housing the trays can be affixed to the outside of a fiber optic enclosure and allow for easy stacking and unstacking.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to the field of optical fiber splicing, and more specifically to apparatuses and methods directed to mechanical splice termination and evaluation of resulting splice joints. In an embodiment, the present invention is an apparatus for evaluating the integrity of a mechanical splice joint comprising a light source, a circulator, a photo detector, and an analysis circuit, wherein the apparatus connects to a test connector and evaluates signals representative of light pulses passing through at least a portion of the test connector.
