CONNECTOR HOLDERS AND DISTRIBUTION FRAME AND CONNECTOR HOLDER ASSEMBLIES FOR OPTICAL CABLE

CONNECTOR HOLDERS AND DISTRIBUTION FRAME AND CONNECTOR HOLDER ASSEMBLIES FOR OPTICAL CABLE A planar connector holder for optical fibers having storage compartments for incoming fibers and a mounting region for connectors to outgoing fibers. Two storage compartments lie back-to-back on each side of a planar base of the holder, the compartments being interconnected for fiber to pass from compartment-to-compartment. The mounting region and the storage compartments are aligned from end-to-end of the holder. With connector mounts mounted in the mounting region, the mounts lie in planes common with the two storage compartments in a depth direction of the holder. Also included is a distribution frame and holder combination in which the holders are mounted in two banks with patch cords extending between the banks and selectively between connectors.
