Abstract: A telecommunications cable management assembly (100) for a distribution frame (10) is disclosed. The cable management assembly (100) includes a front plate (110) extending between first and second ends (110a, 110c) and is provided with apertures (112) for mounting telecommunications components (20). A first side bracket (120) is mounted with the first end (110a) of the front plate (110) to the distribution frame (10). The first side bracket (120) supports cables (26) extending laterally from components (20). A second side bracket (130) is mounted with the second end (110c) of the front plate (110) to the distribution frame (10). The second side bracket (130) can also support cables (28) extending laterally from components (20).
