An optical fiber cable management panel is provided with slideable drawers and structure within the drawers for cable management and/or connection to other devices. Tray inserts drop into the drawers to provide the appropriate management and connection devices. A movable take-up mechanism manages the cable entering and exiting the drawers at side openings. Stackable pivoting storage trays on the tray insert include a detent arrangement for holding each tray in a pivoted access position. The tray inserts further include a front key, and a back tab mounting arrangement for mounting the tray inserts to the drawers, and side radius limiters including notches for extending over raised portions of the drawer. The take-up mechanism includes a U-shaped trough section and cable retention tabs. A control mechanism is provided for controlling movement of the take-up mechanism relative to the drawer.

1. A cable management assembly comprising: a plurality of modules mounted to a telecommunications rack in a stacked arrangement, each module movably mounted to an associated frame, wherein the frames mount the modules to the telecommunications rack in the stacked arrangement;a radius limiter associated with each module and movably mounted to the module; anda control mechanism associated with each module, the control mechanism including a rotating member having teeth that engage a gear rack provided on at least one of the module and the frame associated with the module;wherein movement of each module is synchronized at all times with the movement of the associated radius limiter relative to the frame of the module, the synchronized movement being controlled by the control mechanism; andwherein the movement of each module is synchronized at all times with the movement of the associated radius limiter such that the module and the associated radius limiter are configured to move simultaneously in a first direction that is the same direction relative to the frame of the module, wherein the radius limiter is configured to move with respect to its associated module in a direction that is parallel to the first direction when the module moves with respect to its associated frame. 2. The cable management assembly of claim 1, wherein the gear rack is provided on the frame. 3. The cable management assembly of claim 2, wherein the gear rack is a first gear rack, and wherein the teeth of the rotating member engage a second gear rack provided on the module. 4. The cable management assembly of claim 1, wherein the gear rack is provided on the module. 5. The cable management assembly of claim 1, wherein the radius limiter includes a curved vertical surface that limits the bend radius of cables. 6. The cable management assembly of claim 5, wherein the radius limiter includes a cable retention tab located adjacent to the curved vertical surface. 7. The cable management assembly of claim 1, wherein each module includes a plurality of fiber optic adapters mounted to the module. 8. The cable management assembly of claim 1, wherein the control mechanism is configured to move the radius limiter at half-speed relative to a moving speed of the module.
