Abstract: A fitting for use with a fiber trough system includes first and second opposing end walls and a first side wall extending between the first and second end walls. The first side wall has opposite free ends defining a height of the first side wall that is greater than the height of the first and second end walls. The fitting can also have a second side wall opposing the first side wall and extending between the first and second end walls to result in a closed perimeter shape with an open passageway therethrough. The fitting can be used as part of a fiber management system.
