A fiber optic telecommunications device includes a frame and a fiber optic module including a rack mount portion, a center portion, and a main housing portion. The rack mount portion is stationarily coupled to the frame, the center portion is slidably coupled to the rack mount portion along a sliding direction, and the main housing portion is slidably coupled to the center portion along the sliding direction. The main housing portion of the fiber optic module includes fiber optic connection locations for connecting cables to be routed through the frame. The center portion of the fiber optic module includes a radius limiter for guiding cables between the main housing portion and the frame, the center portion also including a latch for unlatching the center portion for slidable movement. Slidable movement of the center portion with respect to the rack mount portion moves the main housing portion with respect to the frame along the sliding direction.

A splice chip includes a base, separation members extending upwardly from the base to define a plurality of rows, and latching fingers extending upwardly from the base to further define the rows. At least one of the rows includes at least a first latching finger, a second latching finger, and a third latching finger. The third latching finger is shorter than the first and second latching fingers. The second latching finger is shorter than the first latching finger. The row also may include a fourth latching finger that is the same height as the first latching finger.

Splice chips for optical fiber splice cassettes

A splice cassette includes a base and a cover. The base includes an outer channel and an inner storage region separated by a spool wall. The cover is configured to mount to the base to enclose the inner storage region. The outer channel extends radially outwardly from a perimeter of the cover. The cover includes guide spools and a chip receiving arrangement disposed on an inwardly-facing surface that faces the base when the cover mounts to the base. The splice chip remains on the cover when the cover is removed from the base.

Splice cassettes and chips

A telecommunications termination panel includes a pivoting tray with cable connection locations. Cables extending to the connection locations enter through the rear or the side and exit through the side of the panel. Cable management structures direct cables to and away from the connection locations. A first trough extends from the rear to the front of the panel housing, the first trough raised from the floor thereof. A second trough extends from the rear to the front of the tray and is pivotal relative to the first trough with movement of the tray. When the tray is closed, the troughs are parallel and when the tray is open, the troughs are perpendicular to each other. The second trough is raised from the first trough such that cables extending from the first into the second trough are not pinched when the tray is pivoted closed.
