ABSTRACT:
A telecommunications housing includes a plurality of outer walls defining a housing interior volume and an exit. A plurality of adapters is disposed on an interior panel for connection to connectors of fiber optic cables. At least one radius guide is mounted in the interior volume and has a cable guide portion configured to receive portions of the fiber optic cables and guide the fiber optic cables toward the exit without violating a predetermined minimum fiber optic bend radius. An external guide member may also be located on the outside the housing adjacent the exit. The external guide member has a cable guide portion configured to receive portions of the fiber optic cables and guide the fiber optic cables away from the exit without violating a predetermined minimum fiber optic bend radius.
