Abstract

A cable retainer may be structurally configured to be coupled with a profile of a fiber distribution cabinet so as to retain a cable in the profile and maximize space in the profile. The cable retainer may include an inner retaining portion structurally configured to be received in a cable receiving portion in a profile of a fiber distribution cabinet, a neck portion extending from the inner retaining portion and structurally configured to be received in an opening through a wall portion of the profile to the cable receiving portion, an outer retaining portion structurally configured to extend from the neck portion in a direction away from the inner retaining portion. The inner retaining portion may be structurally configured to pass through the opening when disposed in a first orientation relative to the opening, and wherein the inner retaining portion is structurally configured to be prevented from passing through the opening when disposed in a second orientation relative to the opening. The neck portion may be structurally configured to permit the inner retaining portion to be rotated relative to the profile from the first orientation to the second orientation when the neck portion is received in the opening such that the inner retaining portion is configured to engage an inner surface portion of the wall portion and the outer retaining portion is configured to engage an outer surface portion of the wall portion so as to couple the retainer with the profile and retain a cable in the cable receiving portion. The inner retaining portion may be configured to extend into the cable receiving portion by a thickness of the inner retaining portion such that the thickness of the inner retaining portion is configured to be less than about 1.9 mm so as to maximize a space in the cable receiving portion between the inner retaining portion and the bottommost wall portion.
