Patent ID: 7079745

Claim:
A spool assembly for storing slack of fiber optic jumpers, the spool assembly comprising: a face; a mount having an adhesive surface; and a cylindrical spool supported between the face and the mount for receiving fiber optic jumpers wrapped over or around the spool in order to store slack of the fiber optic jumpers, the spool having a radius larger than a minimum bend radius of the fiber optic jumpers such that the fiber optic jumpers wrapped over or around the spool are not bent beyond the minimum bend radius; wherein the spool has a width between the face and the mount, wherein capacity of the spool for storing fiber optic jumpers is a function of the width of the spool, wherein the width of the spool is expandible in order to increase the capacity of the spool for storing fiber optic jumpers; wherein the adhesive surface of the mount is attachable to a structure in order to position the spool adjacent to the structure.
