Expanded Fiber Tray
Proper Fiber Routing
Observe the following considerations regarding fiber routing:
Poor fiber routing is a major cause of bend radius violations.

Proper fiber routing provides well-defined paths, making it easier to access

individual fibers.
Easy to follow paths aid technicians in performing fiber tracing, testing, and

reconfiguration.
When fiber is not managed, slack fiber tends to become entangled, making

tracing and rearrangement difficult.
The expanded fiber tray provides fiber guides to contain slack fiber. Slack fiber

can be coiled in a circular fashion using the guides on the left side of the tray, or
by routing through the guides on the outer edge of the tray.
The FIBER guides are designed to allow Velcro tie-down straps to be looped

through the posts to further maintain neat fiber placement.
