Abstract
An optical fiber distribution housing is provided. The housing includes an active fiber routing structure positioned between the splitter module and the plurality of optical splice ports and/or a guide structure defining an inactive fiber routing channel. The active fiber routing structure includes a plurality of channels, and each of the plurality of channels of the active fiber routing structure is associated with a subset of optical splice ports. Each channel receives a subset of active fibers from the splitter module and guides the active fibers to the subset of optical splice ports associated with the channel. The inactive fiber guide structure receives an inactive fiber and the fiber follows a path from the splitter modules along the first wall and through the inactive fiber routing channel to the inactive fiber retainer.
