OPTICAL FIBER CARRIER

An optical fiber carrier is provided, for routing given optical fibers from a bundle of the given optical fibers, the given optical fibers having a given minimum bend radius, the optical fiber carrier comprising: a planar surface comprising vertical edges; downwards curved rungs projecting from the planar surface and vertically aligned between the vertical edges, each of the downwards curved rungs peaking in an upward direction, and comprising a respective radius that is greater than or equal to the given minimum bend radius; and exit conduits located at the vertical edges, respective exit conduits located between respective adjacent downwards curved rungs, the downwards curved rungs and the exit conduits for routing an excess of each of the given optical fibers from the bundle, guided by one or more of the downwards curved rungs, and through one of the exit conduits.
