Abstract: A housing for one or more splices of optical fiber includes at least portions of each fiber in the region of the splices. The housing includes a tray portion having a fiber receiving surface and peripheral wall means extending from the surface and retaining means associated with said tray portion. The tray portion also includes anchor providing means at ports of entry and exit of each optical fiber into and out of the housing. The retaining means is movable between a first position in which at least portions of each optical fiber are retained adjacent the tray portion and a second position in which the splices and portions of each optical fiber are placed in the housing.
