Abstract
A cable management panel for optimizing management and storage of a slack portion of a fiber optic cable includes a base portion and a cable support portion that is configured to extend from the base portion. The cable support includes a curved portion configured to prevent a fiber optic cable that is wrapped around the curved portion from being bent beyond a minimum bend radius. The cable support is configured to provide a path structure for optimizing management and storage of different lengths of slack of fiber optic cables such that a selected path length from an end of the base portion to the curved portion of the cable support and back to the end of the base portion substantially matches a length of slack of a fiber optic cable such that the length of slack is maintained within the height of the base so as to eliminate the need for slack cable management structures in space about a rack to which the panel is mounted.
