Modular Cable Management Spools

摘要

Improved cable management spools for patch panel assemblies/patching systems are provided. The present disclosure provides improved systems/methods for the design and use of modular cable management spool assemblies configured to mount with respect to media patching systems (e.g., to patch panel assemblies configured to support multiple media connections). The modular cable management spools are configured to mount with respect to media patching systems and/or to related supporting structures (e.g., to cable management plates, to racks, etc.) for cable management purposes. Disclosed herein is a patching system utilizing modular cable management spools for cable management purposes, the patching system (e.g., high density patching system) configured to support copper-based and/or fiber optic connections in the same patching system/enclosure.

主权项

1. A cable management assembly comprising:
a mounting body; a first spool member having an inner wall, with a top wall and a bottom wall extending from the inner wall to define a cavity configured to support and at least partially house media cables; and at least one flange extending from the bottom wall, the at least one flange configured to releasably mount to the mounting body; wherein the inner, top and bottom walls of the first spool member each extend substantially arcuately from a first end to a second end; and wherein the mounting body is configured to be removably mounted to an aperture of a supporting unit.
