Abstract:
1. A fiber optic splice tray comprising: an organizer plate which comprises a first projection formed by a first wall which extends around the first projection, the first wall having a first curved guide section which is configured to receive and guide optical fibers around the first projection along an edge of the first wall, and the first wall comprises a first notch formed therein, a first manifold and a second manifold provided in the organizer plate, wherein an end of the first manifold and an end of the second manifold are inserted into the first notch such that the first manifold is stacked on the second manifold forming a stack of manifolds; and wherein the first manifold further comprises a manifold base and a manifold top and a plurality of grooves formed in the manifold top, wherein a length of the manifold base is greater than a length of the entire manifold top, wherein the length of the manifold base and the length of the manifold top extend in a same direction along a length of the first manifold, and wherein said direction is substantially perpendicular to an axis of said plurality of grooves, and wherein the manifold base is inserted into the first notch formed in the first projection.
