ABSTRACT:
A fixture includes an adapter array with movable adapter modules and a storage panel. A housing of a connector holder includes a plurality of openings for receiving fiber optic connectors and protecting the polished end face of the connectors from damage while the connectors are stored within the storage panel. Each of the connectors are inserted within the openings in the connector holder for storage and protection until the cables need to be connected to a customer equipment cable in the adapter array. The fixture is used in a cabinet including fiber optic splitters. Offset vertical fingers are provided on the fixture for cable management.
