Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a fiber optic assembly having a splice tray that increases spatial efficiency within the fiber optic assembly and within the splice tray. The splice tray may be inserted and/or removed from a terminal without utilization of tools. Additionally, the splice tray may be configured to enable one handed insertion or removal, which may be advantageous, such as in small terminals or confined spaces. The splice tray also provides an efficient routing pattern of optical fibers to enable larger diameter optical fibers to be routed within the splice tray and the terminal.
