Abstract

An arrangement for depositing splicing cables for light waveguides within a cable sleeve provides a separate receptacle for excess length of the light waveguide leads for each of the splicing cassettes. The splicing cassettes and receptacles are respectively arranged on a carrier plate and are held in a fixing arrangement or structure so that an individual carrier plate with its respective splicing cassette can be removed without disturbing or removing the remaining carrier plates and their cassettes.
