A cable management unit including a support assembly for mounting a patch panel, such as to a wall. The support assembly may include first and second anchor members adapted to be anchored to the wall, and first and second support arms hingedly coupled to the first and second anchor members at first and second hinge points, respectively. The first and second support arms may be adapted to be coupled to the patch panel. A chassis the patch panel may be supported by the first and second support arms. The first and second support arms may be configured to pivot about the first and second hinge points respectively between storage and access positions. The first and second support arms may extend outward from the wall in the access position and may be substantially parallel to the wall in the storage position.

The present invention relates to a communication patch panel and a communication rack system having the communication patch panel. The communication patch panel includes a panel body (2) having two ends as well as a front side (21) and a rear side. The communication patch panel includes two fittings (3), each of which is configured to be mounted on a communication rack (20) and to be detachably connected to one of the ends of the panel body, wherein each of the fittings provides a plurality of transverse positions for the detachable connection. A plurality of different positionings of the panel body may be flexibly realized in the communication patch panel.

A termination field and a guide member are independently pivotally coupled to a base body. The termination field pivots relative to the base body along a path of travel. The guide member is coupled to the base body to provide bend radius protection to cables plugged into the termination field. The guide member defines a channel leading the cables from the termination field towards a first side of the base body at an exterior of the base body. In certain examples, the guide member and termination field pivot relative to the base body about different hinge axes. In other examples, the termination field pivots with the guide member for part of the path of travel and relative to the guide member for another part of the path of travel.

A fiber distribution hub configured to house a patch panel includes a plurality of walls forming a chamber, a first shelf attached to a first wall of the plurality of walls in the chamber, a first track supported by the first shelf, and a frame body configured to support the patch panel and to be coupled with the first shelf via the first track. The frame body is configured to shift along the first track between a stored position, a front-exposed position, and a back-exposed position.

A patch panel, including a front portion for accommodating a plurality of front side ports, and a back portion for accommodating one or more back side ports and for storing one or more extension cables; and one or more inner cables for connecting at least one of the front side ports to at least one of the back side ports, wherein the patch panel is configured such that when the patch panel is placed in a rack, the front side ports are proximate a first side of the rack, and the back side ports are proximate a second side of the rack, the first side of the rack and the second side of the rack being opposite, or substantially opposite, one another.

The frame body is configured to shift along the first track between a stored position, a front-exposed position, and a back-exposed position.

High density optical fiber distribution sub-rack comprising: a chassis for housing a plurality of shelves, the chassis comprising at least two shelf storage areas placed side by side with each other, at least one shelf housed in one of the at least two storage areas of the chassis, the at least one shelf having an internal hollow seat for connection modules, the at least one shelf comprising one or more connection modules having a plurality of adapters for interconnection optical fibers, the connection modules being arranged in the internal hollow seat of the at least one shelf at the frontal face of the at least one shelf, wherein the at least one shelf is guided so as to be movable towards the external of the chassis by the succession of a translation movement and a rotation movement of the at least one shelf.

A patch panel assembly, bezel and modular jacks are disclosed which allow modular jacks to be positioned closer together to increase patch panel density. In particular the modular jacks are equipped with features which engage openings which are offset, allowing for the modular jacks to be positioned closer together, in particular when arranged in adjacent parallel rows.
