A fiber optic cassette includes a cassette body, the cassette body extending along a longitudinal axis between a front and a rear, extending along a lateral axis between a first side and a second side, and extending along a transverse axis between a bottom and a top. The fiber optic cassette further includes a plurality of fiber optic adapter apertures defined at the front of the cassette body. The fiber optic cassette further includes a side channel defined at the first side of the cassette body, the side channel including an entry aperture spaced from the rear of the cassette body along the longitudinal axis. The fiber optic cassette further includes a splice module receptacle defined in the cassette body.

A cable assembly includes a cable and a cable mounting clamp. The cable mounting clamp includes a base removably connectable to a surface. The base may include a tab removably insertable into an aperture defined in the surface and a lock releasably connectable to the surface. The base further includes an outer body which defines an inner channel and a support ramp disposed within the inner channel, the inner channel extending along a longitudinal axis. The cable mounting clamp further includes a cap connectable to the base to further define the inner channel therebetween. The cable mounting clamp further includes a roller tube disposed within the inner channel and rotatably mounted on the support ramp, the roller tube rotatable about the longitudinal axis.

Cable mounting clamps

A cable assembly includes a cable and a cable mounting clamp. The cable mounting clamp includes a base removably connectable to a surface. The base includes an outer body which defines an inner channel and a support ramp disposed within the inner channel, the inner channel extending along a longitudinal axis. The cable mounting clamp further includes a roller tube disposed within the inner channel and moveably mounted on the support ramp, the roller tube translatable along the longitudinal axis relative to the support ramp. The cable is inserted through the roller tube and extends through the inner channel, such that the cable is translatable with the roller tube along the longitudinal axis.

A communications module housing includes an enclosure defining an opening, and a tray movably positioned within the enclosure. The tray includes a base, and a front rail positioned on the base, the front rail including a plurality of first mounts. The tray further includes a platform positioned on the base, the platform including a plurality of second mounts. The tray further includes a rear rail positioned on the base, the rear rail including a plurality of third mounts. The first and second mounts correspond to mounting features of the first communications modules and the third mounts correspond to mounting features of the second communications modules.

Communications module housing

Fiber optic furcation units, methods for assembling fiber optic furcation units, and fiber optic furcation kits for assembling fiber optic furcation units are provided. A method for assembling a fiber optic furcation unit includes inserting a furcation tube into a passage defined in a furcation block such that a first end portion of the furcation tube is disposed within a first end portion of the passage and the furcation tube extends from a second end of the passage. A first end of the passage has a diameter greater than a diameter of the second end of the passage. The method further includes flaring the first end portion of the furcation tube such that an inner diameter of the first end of the furcation tube increases. The method further includes inserting an optical fiber into the furcation tube through the first end of the furcation tube.

A interior distribution cabinet includes a body defining an interior, the interior including a provider portion and a subscriber portion. The body further defines a subscriber cable entry slot, the subscriber cable entry slot disposed in a portion of the body defining the subscriber portion. The interior distribution cabinet further includes a first door selectively providing access to the provider portion, and a second door selectively providing access to the subscriber portion. The interior distribution cabinet further includes a connector storage tray disposed within the subscriber portion, the connector storage tray including a tray body defining a plurality of connector slots.
