Support frame assemblies for optical fiber management trays

Abstract

A support framework for modules that pivotally mount optical fiber management trays. The framework is configured to mount the modules in a simplified manner. According to certain embodiments, frame members of the framework can be connected to one another in a simple, cost effective manner that does not require rivets or other separate fasteners. According to certain embodiments, some or all of the frame members of the framework can be constructed of a polymeric material, providing for a relatively light weight and cost-effective framework. The framework can form part of a fiber organizing assembly at a distribution location of a fiber optic network.
