Abstract

A distribution frame for an optical fibre transmission system comprises a cabinet incorporating at each side at least one side panel supporting a surplus length of cable, a pair of inner panels spaced from the side panels and organizer trays, arranged to accommodate surplus lengths of fibres from the cables, supported between the inner panels, the latter panels also supporting couplers for enabling the cable fibers to be connected to further fibres, the ends of which are accommodated in the spaces between the inner and side panels.
