Abstract: Fiber optic terminals having one or more connector ports configured for receiving fiber optic connector having a latching trigger used as a connector securing/release mechanism connectors are disclosed. The fiber optic terminals comprise an actuator along with a flexible tab that are associated with the respective connector port of the shell of the fiber optic terminal. The actuator may translate to engage the flexible tab for engaging with the latching trigger of the fiber optic connector for allowing the release of the fiber optic connector from the connector port. An example of a fiber optic connector having a latching trigger used as a connector securing/release mechanism are LC connectors, but the terminal concepts may be used with other suitable connectors such as SC connectors having a latching trigger.

Abstract: A fiber optic management device comprising a base, a tray and a cover. The base includes a first section for mounting the fiber optic management device, a second section opposite the first section, and a third section and forth section extending between respective first ends of the first section and the second section. In the first mounting position of the tray, the opposing sides of the tray body are guided by mounting slots provided by the first and second sections of the base such that the lower section and the upper section of the tray body are arranged parallel to the fourth section of the base. In a second mounting position, the tray body is mounted to the second section of the base in such a way that the lower section and the upper section of the tray body are arranged perpendicular to the fourth section of the base.

Abstract: An equipment cabinet with a movable stile is disclosed herein. In an exemplary embodiment, the equipment cabinet comprises a housing body defining a front opening, independently operable first and second doors, and a movable stile positioned within the front opening and between the first and second doors. First and second sealing pads are positioned between the movable stile and the housing body when the movable stile is in a closed position. First and second sealing gaskets, respectively, are attached to interiors of the first and second doors, where at least a portion of each of the first and second sealing gaskets are positioned between the movable stile and the first or second doors when the first and second doors are closed. Thus, the equipment cabinet has independently operable doors and facilitates increased access to an interior of the equipment cabinet while maintaining an environmental seal.

Abstract: A fiber optic distribution device (20), comprising: a mounting frame (11) having at least two vertically oriented mounting bars (12); at least one fiber optic management unit (14) mounted to the mounting frame (11), wherein the or each fiber optic management unit (14) comprises a chassis (16), the chassis (16) having opposed side walls (17); mounting brackets (15) attached to outwardly facing surfaces of the side walls (17) of the chassis (16) of the or each fiber optic management unit (14) for mounting the respective fiber optic management unit (14) to the vertically oriented mounting bars (12) of the mounting frame (11), wherein each mounting bracket (15) comprises a first mounting leg (20) through which the respective mounting bracket (15) is mountable to a side wall (17) of a chassis (16) of a fiber optic management unit (14) and a second mounting leg (21) running almost perpendicular to the first mounting leg (20) through which the respective mounting bracket (15) is mountable to a mounting bar (12) of t

Abstract: A fiber optic management unit for handling optical fibers unit having a base with first and second segments miming perpendicular to each other. A tray is pivotably attached to the second segment such that the tray is transferable between a first position in which the fiber routing track of the first segment is closed and a second position in which the fiber routing track of the first segment is opened when the tray is pivoted around a first axis, and wherein the tray is transferable between the second position in which the fiber routing track of the first segment is opened and a third position in which the fiber routing track of the first segment is also opened when the tray is pivoted around a second axis running perpendicular to the first axis.

Abstract: A fiber optic distribution device for handling optical fibers, especially wall box, is disclosed. The fiber optic distribution device includes housing with a back wall having parallel grooves, a front wall and side walls defining together an interior of the housing. Fiber optic management units like patch units and/or splice units and/or overlength units for handling optical fibers and/or junctions between optical fibers mount in the interior of the housing to the back wall. The back wall has at least one set of parallel grooves, whereby each fiber optic management unit is mounted to the back wall by fastening elements acting together with at least one of grooves.

Abstract: Splice holders for managing and storing splices between optical fibers in fiber optic hardware and equipment are disclosed herein. The splice holder include a base portion and an array of splice holding partitions extending from the base portion. In some embodiments the array of splice holding partitions define a plurality of rows for receiving a respective first splice component along a first direction and a plurality of columns intersecting the plurality of fiber rows for receiving a second splice component along a second direction. Similarly, in some embodiments, selected pairs of splice holding partitions define a column width and selected pairs of splice holding partitions define a row width. Additionally, in some embodiments, the column width is sufficiently greater than the row width to accommodate the second splice component oriented along one of the plurality of columns that could not otherwise be accommodated if oriented along one of the plurality of rows.
