Abstract
A method for organising a tray comprising a front edge in a fiber optic interconnect system is disclosed. The method comprises defining a standard width unit wherein a width of the front edge is substantially evenly divisible by the standard width unit, selecting a plurality of cassettes for installation on the tray from a set of cassettes having a plurality of different cassette widths as measured between outer side edges thereof, wherein each of the different cassette widths is evenly divisible by the standard width unit, and releasably securing said selected cassettes along the front edge of the tray, wherein when arranged on the tray an outer side edge of each of said selected cassettes is directly adjacent an outer side edge of at least one other selected cassette.
