ABSTRACT:
A splice tray assembly (20) including a tray member (22) and a planar cover member (24). Side walls (34,36) of the tray include proximate each end (28,30) a tray tab (40) extending above top edges of the side walls and including an inwardly directed retainer section (44) spaced above the side wall top edges. The cover (24) includes cooperating retainer sections (56) to underlie the tray retainer sections (44) while side edge portions (58,60) of the cover rest atop the top edges of the tray side walls, for cover retention. The cover further includes deflectable portions or cover tabs (70,72) inwardly from a respective end to be positioned inwardly of the tray tabs (40), with either of the cover tabs being upwardly deflectable enabling it to pass over the tray retention section of the adjacent tray tab during cover assembly and removal.
