The cartridge may include a power input terminal and a power output terminal. When the cartridge is removeably received by a power distribution panel the power input terminal may directly couple to a power input connection of the power distribution panel and the power output terminal may directly couple to a power output connection of the power distribution panel. The directly coupled power input terminal and power output terminal being void of an intermediate busbar arranged between the cartridge and the power distribution panel.

Abstract: A cable management system may comprise a longitudinal trough with a plurality of lights disposed on an underside of the trough. A power connector may be disposed at an end of the trough communicatively coupled to the plurality of lights. The cable management system may also comprise a second trough or one of a plurality of cable management components, each with a plurality of lights disposed on an underside and a power connector communicatively coupled to the pluralities of lights. The first trough, the second trough, and/or the plurality of cable management components may mate together to form a continuous circuit.

Abstract: A conduit for routing connectivity cables. The conduit including a bottom including consecutively connected bottom members extending a longitudinal length of the conduit. A first side and a second side are connected to the bottom. The first side including consecutively connected first side members extending the longitudinal length and the second side including consecutively connected second side members extending the longitudinal length. The bottom, the first side, and the second side extend along a center axis of the conduit, the center axis extending the longitudinal length of the conduit.

Abstract: A tray may be arrangeable in a chassis that is slideably displaceable from a stowed position to a first use position or to a second use position. A flexible member may be coupled to a tray and provide for maintaining a bend radius of optical fibers received by the flexible member. The flexible member may include anti-jamming features to prevent links of the flexible member from jamming. A handle may be coupled to the tray and may be lockingly engageable with the flexible member. A faceplate may be couplable to a first end of the tray or to a second end of the tray, the faceplate to provide a respective cable management capability for a plurality of fibers received by the tray. The first end of the tray may have a first geometry symmetrical, about at least one axis, to a second geometry of the second end of the tray.

Abstract: A conduit for routing connectivity cables. The conduit including a bottom including consecutively connected bottom members extending a longitudinal length of the conduit. A first side and a second side are connected to the bottom. The first side including consecutively connected first side members extending the longitudinal length and the second side including consecutively connected second side members extending the longitudinal length. The bottom, the first side, and the second side extend along a center axis of the conduit, the center axis extending the longitudinal length of the conduit.

Abstract: Fiber blocking apparatuses couple to an outside fiber optic cable and include a damping unit that prevents damaging (e.g., micro-fracturing) optical fibers received from the outside fiber optic cable and blocks a gelatinous element from advancing out of the outside fiber optic cable. The fiber blocking apparatuses include a view port providing visibility of a routing of the optical fibers in the fiber blocking apparatuses.

Abstract: A conduit for routing connectivity cables. The conduit including a bottom including consecutively connected bottom members extending a longitudinal length of the conduit.

Abstract: Monitoring and access control systems for network communication equipment of a network facility. A login device, to receive a credential of a user, is associated with a piece of network communication equipment arrangeable in a network facility. A monitor device is associated with the piece of network communication equipment to receive data associated with an access of the piece of network communication equipment. And, the data associated with the access of the piece of network communication equipment is auditable by a party to provide accountability of services performed on the piece of network communication equipment arrangeable in the network facility. A security device arranged with the piece of network communication equipment may un-lock or lock a portion of the piece of network communication equipment based at least in part on the credential received from the user.

Abstract: A plurality of patch trays displaceably received in a chassis received in a left side or right side of an access side of a frame, and a splice tray removeably received in the access side of the frame. The splice tray having a capacity to receive at least about 288 fiber terminations and the plurality of patch trays displaceably received in the chassis having a capacity to collectively receive the at least about 288 fiber terminations from the splice tray. A patch tray including a row of pop-up adapter packs to collectively receive a respective portion of the at least about 288 fiber terminations received by the patch tray. The row of pop-up adapter packs arranged in the patch tray substantially in a left side or right side of the patch tray to offset the row of pop-up adapter packs to provide more space for routing the respective portion of the 288 fiber terminations in the patch tray.

Abstract: An optical fiber cord management system and method is provided to monitor and manage optical fiber cords locations in telecommunication equipment. The system may comprise an antenna to receive a radio signal propagated from an optical fiber cord, and a processor, in communication with the antenna, to receive radio signal data. The processor may determine if the radio signal data matches a modulated radio signal. If the processor determines that the radio signal data associated with the radio signal matches the modulated radio signal, the processor causes a luminescent member to illuminate.
