Handling of optical fibres in confined or limited spaces

摘要

The present invention relates to an arrangement for handling optical fibers in a confined or limited space, such as connecting, reorganizing and/or cross-coupling optical fibers in a cassette without said fibers intersecting one another. By providing the cassette (4) with looping channels (17), the optical fiber cables can be organized in a controlled fashion without needing to cross. The cassette may also include elements (18, 19) which function to change the direction of the optical fibers prior to connecting said fibers.
