Abstract

A sealing body for a cable sleeve for an optical fiber cable is disclosed. The sealing body has a central, cylindrical sealing body segment. The central, cylindrical sealing body segment has, on an outer casing surface, a plurality of cutouts distributed over the circumference thereof, in each case one cylinder-segment-like sealing body segment being capable of being inserted into each of the cutouts of the central sealing body segment, and in each case one cable insertion opening for receiving and individually sealing off in each case one single cable being formed between the central sealing body segment and each cylinder-segment-like sealing body segment. Each of the cylinder-segment-like sealing body segment has a gel-like sealing element, which can be compressed individually independently of the sealing elements of other cylinder-segment-like sealing body segments in order to individually seal off the cable inserted into the respective cable insertion opening.
