Abstract
A fiber management apparatus includes a module for managing fibers. In one implementation, the module includes at least two trays. An upper one of the trays is slidable and pivotable relative to a base tray to allow access to fibers managed by the base tray. In another implementation, the module is coupled to a chassis and is pivotable through an angle greater than 90 degrees relative to the chassis. A kit for mounting a chassis includes at least two different sized sets of brackets for mounting the chassis to racks of various different widths. A method of managing fibers includes pulling a module having multiple trays out of a chassis, pulling a first exposed one of the trays outward from the chassis, and lifting the first tray to expose a second one of the trays.
