1. I generally use the vertical cable management of the rack to go up and down to take up the slack as needed, taking care to leave a reasonably large radius turn at the bottom. 2. If there's a proper fibre tray above the rack, go past the rack/drop point in question, take up half the slack, turn around, and come back to the rack.

Hi Folks,

Wondering what people do for fibre patch lead management in racks - server racks and comms racks. Two generic examples:

1. Multiple devices within a rack that need connecting together with fibre patch leads - which could be just about the right size or could be a meter too long. 2. A fibre patch lead coming from another rack, to your rack inside a flexi conduit and exiting near the top of the rack. Between two and six meters of spare patch lead to handle.

Ideas & suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
