A vertical routing and storage apparatus for optical fibers is provided comprising an upright member having front and rear vertical faces, a plurality of front channel assemblies adjustably mounted to the front vertical face, and a plurality of rear channel assemblies mounted to the rear vertical face. The upright member is adapted for connection to a supporting frame member and has a plurality of vertically oriented slots formed in the front vertical face. Each front channel assembly has a vertical position which is a adjustable through a range of vertical positions corresponding to the vertical extent of one of the vertical slots. Optical fibers can be routed vertically through the front and rear channels of the routing and storage apparatus and the vertical positions and spacing of the front channel assemblies can be adjusted to advantageously correspond to the vertical positions of optical fiber source equipment adjacent to the front of the apparatus. The interior walls of the channel assemblies can be radiused to prevent the fibers from violating their minimum bending radius. Storage spools, channel assemblies providing side access to the channel, and a dust cap storage cup may also be provided to facilitate the routing and storage of optical fibers.
