A communications management system includes a cabinet, a chassis, and a panel for mounting optical circuits. In one implementation, the chassis is coupled to the cabinet and slides outward from the cabinet and the panel is coupled to the chassis and pivots about an axis that is perpendicular to the direction that the chassis slides. A communications management system my include a cabinet with substantially parallel first and second surfaces. In one implementation, one of the surfaces contains a provision for attaching the cabinet to a second cabinet and a feature for passing a communications fiber from the cabinet to the second cabinet. A second communications management system includes panel for mounting optical circuits. In one implementation, the panel includes a feed adapter for terminating optical fibers that are in use and a parking lot for terminating optical fiber that are not in use.
