  • a cabinet defining a compartment, the cabinet also including one or more main doors for accessing the compartment;

    a frame disposed within the compartment to receive telecommunications equipment;

    a termination region disposed on the frame, the termination region being configured to receive a termination panel and a plurality of termination adapters;

    a splitter region disposed on the frame, the splitter region being configured to receive a splitter for splitting signals of an incoming fiber to a plurality of splitter fibers, the splitter region being located above the termination panel on the frame; and

    a ramp disposed at a top of the frame, the ramp being sized and oriented so that at least a portion of the splitter fibers are routed along a splitter fiber routing path extending from the splitter region, up and over the ramp that has a highest point located above the splitter region, and down past the splitter region towards the termination region, the ramp inhibiting the splitter fibers from bending beyond a minimum bend radius.
