US Patent 11609397 Telecommunications system

A telecommunications system includes a chassis defining a first side and an opposite second side. A tray is pivotally mounted to the chassis between a closed storage position and an open access position relative to the chassis. At least one telecommunications component is removably mounted to the tray. One of an input or output cable from the telecommunications component extends out to an exterior of the chassis from the first side of the chassis, and the other of the input or output cable from the telecommunications component follows a cable path across the chassis, positioned above the pivotable tray, and extends out to the exterior of the chassis from the opposite second side of the chassis.
