ABSTRACT:
A cassette which serves the purpose of connecting and branching light waveguides has a reserve length thereof for each of the waveguides deposited in the cassette in either a figure eight or circular or oval pattern. To accomplish this, the cassette is formed with upstanding holding devices which enable winding the waveguides in a figure eight pattern or in a circular pattern, or both. A plurality of the cassettes can be interconnected together to form a cassette block which can be opened hinge-like. To interconnect waveguides in one cassette with the other cassette, each of the cassettes is provided with an opening in a floor of the cassette and a portion of the side wall midway along the longitudinal side wall, which side wall is positioned adjacent a hinge interconnecting the cassettes together.
