A fiber-optic storage tray is disclosed, comprising a fiber splicing portion; wherein the fiber splicing portion is configured to retain a plurality of optical fiber splices, such that adjacent optical fiber splices are offset with respect to one another in the direction of the depth of the tray and the adjacent optical fiber splices are also offset with respect to one another in the direction of their length.

Fiber-optic splice storage tray

A fiber-optic apparatus is disclosed, comprising a base; an optical splitter portion disposed on the base and configured to retain an optical splitter; a first fiber splicing portion, the first fiber splicing portion disposed on the base and configured to retain a plurality of optical fiber splices connecting to an optical splitter; and wherein the first fiber splicing portion is configured to retain a plurality of optical fiber splices such that an end of at least a first optical fiber splice is offset from an end of at least a second optical fiber splice in the direction of the depth of the apparatus.

Fiber-optic apparatus

A cable entry sealing system includes a housing having a first housing end and a second housing end; a sealing and shielding member having a portion insertable into the housing, the sealing and shielding member comprising: a plug portion and a medial sealing portion, extending from the plug portion. The medial sealing portion includes a first raised edge, a lip sealing portion extending outwardly from the first raised edge, and a medial body section having a second raised edge. The system further includes an end sealing portion, extending from the medial portion, and at least one compression member coupled to the end sealing portion. The sealing and shielding member is configured to prevent contamination into the cable entry sealing system and distortion of the at least one compression member.
