Abstract: A telecommunications chassis is disclosed herein. The chassis includes a housing defining a front end, a rear end and an interior, the chassis housing telecommunications equipment within the interior, cables connected to the telecommunications equipment configured to exit through the rear end. The housing is configured for mounting to a telecommunications rack and being movable relative to the rack between a closed position and an open position. A cable management structure is mounted between the housing and the rack, the cable management structure configured to move the cables exiting the rear of the housing upwardly, out of the way of the housing when the housing is moved from the open position toward the closed position.

Abstract: An insertion box provides a plurality of input and output ports. Each input port corresponds with a predefined and unchanging set of output ports. Insertion of a signal into a particular input port results in that signal being delivered to each of the corresponding output ports. The dissemination functionality is performed by RF circuitry that is typically housed within the insertion box, and is interposed between the input ports and the output ports. The RF circuitry is composed of combiner circuits and splitter circuits. The RF circuitry is designed so that when a combiner is used as an input stage for a splitter, a transformer, usually used to convert an input or output impedance to match a characteristic line impedance, is eliminated. Elimination of such a transformer results in a concomitant reduction in signal loss.
