Summary:A panel arrangement provides at least 288 output fiber connections within 1 rack unit (RU). The panel arrangement includes modules mounted within a chassis. Each module carries a plurality of optical adapters, which each define multiple de-mateable connection interface locations. In certain examples, each connection interface location enables a connection between multiple pairs of optical fibers. A WDM or other optical circuitry may be provided within the module to optically couple an input connection interface location to output connection interface locations.
