The splice tray may also include a splice holder configured to hold a plurality of spliced optical fibers. The splice holder may include a holder base coupled to the tray base, and a plurality of ribs associated with the holder base and defining a plurality of recesses configured to receive at least one spliced optical fiber. The splice tray may also include a cover removably coupled to the tray base and/or splice holder.
