Abstract

A cassette arrangement for cable sleeves or distributors is composed of a plurality of cassettes for light waveguides. Each cassette is mounted for pivotable movement between a storage position and a working access position. Each cassette has a pair of deflection elements with circumferential channels for receiving the excess lengths of the light waveguides which are stored in the cassette.
