Abstract
A fiber module is disclosed with an improved design that creates at least two work areas for managing fiber within the module body by including a work area floor that partitions the interior of the module to define at least two work areas. Each of the work areas includes their own fiber management equipment, as well as fiber routing elements for managing a length of slack fiber within each of the work areas. By segmenting the interior of the module into the multiple work spaces, the module described herein is more efficient when managing larger numbers of fibers.
