Abstract:
Examples of optical splitter systems, methods and modules enable the stacking and interconnecting of one or more optical splitter modules. One example of a splitter module has a housing and one or more connection members for connecting to adjacent instances of like splitter modules. The housing includes a plurality of cable ports providing access to an optical splitter storage area. Each connection member includes a tab and a slot, the tab configured to slidingly engage with the slot of an adjacent connection member. Sliding engagement of adjacent instances of splitter modules can form a stack of splitter modules along a stacking axis. In some cases a splitter module includes a latching mechanism to removably engage an adjacent splitter module. The latching mechanism can restrict sliding engagement and thus decoupling of the adjacent splitter modules.

Claim (Index 17):
The optical splitter stacking system of  claim 12 , further comprising an optical splitter assembly positioned within the optical splitter storage area, a plurality of fiber leads connected to the optical splitter assembly, and a plurality of cable assemblies, wherein each cable assembly is connected to one of the fiber leads, wherein each cable assembly extends outside the housing through one of the cable ports, and wherein each cable assembly is terminated outside the housing by an optical fiber connection member.
