Claim:
A splice tray for accommodating at least one splice of two or more optical fibers, the splice tray comprising: a base, wherein the base defines transverse sides; a cover to selectively define an opened position and a closed position; a hinge portion, the hinge portion having a first hinge that attaches the base at one of the transverse sides to the hinge portion on a first axis and a second hinge that attaches the cover to the hinge portion on a second axis; at least one splice holder joined to the base of the splice tray, wherein the at least one splice holder is adapted to selectively receive a splice that optically connects a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber; and at least one optical fiber routing device provided on the cover of the splice tray; wherein the optical fiber routing device is adapted to provide slack storage for at least one of the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber when the cover defines an opened position and when the cover defines a closed position.
