US Patent 7961999 Optical waveguide distribution device

There is disclosed an optical waveguide distribution device having a distribution panel with splice cassettes removably connected thereto. Fiber optic splices are placed within the splice cassettes, so that removal of the splice cassettes allows improved access to the splices. In addition, the distribution panel includes a front wall upon which are positioned a plurality of couplings. The front wall is removably connected to the distribution panel to allow improved access to the couplings.
