A fiber distribution frame arrangement includes a fiber distribution frame. Fiber
optic component panels are housed within the fiber distribution frame at respective
positions. Doors are connected to the fiber distribution frame for the doors to
open and close relative to the fiber distribution frame. Each door corresponds
to one of the fiber optic component panels such that the door opens and closes
relative to the corresponding fiber optic component panel when the door opens and
closes relative to the fiber distribution frame. Actuators corresponding to the
doors are positioned on the corresponding doors in order to lock the corresponding
door to the fiber distribution frame upon actuation when the corresponding door
is closed. A cable extends between each actuator for connecting the actuators together.
A controller communicates with the actuators via the cable in order to control
actuation of the actuators and monitor actuation status of the actuators.
