Abstract
An optical fiber storage apparatus is disclosed having a tray and a take-up spool rotatably mounted on the tray. The spool includes upper and lower disk portions separated by a plurality of columns. Opposing surfaces of the columns define an outer circumferential track and an interior track disposed within said outer track and in communication therewith. Axial openings are formed through at least one of the plates to provide exposure of the tracks for insertion of a cable within the tracks and surrounding the outer circumferential track.
