Abstract

The invention relates to a device for splicing one or more optical-fibre cables (1, 1'). When splicing optical fibres (2, 2'), for instance welding the fibres, it will preferably be possible to store fibre slack at the location of the splices without subjecting the optical fibres to mechanical forces. The inventive device includes a generally cylindrical body (4) having one or more grooves (8) disposed around the periphery of the cylindrical body. The grooves are adapted to accommodate one or more sleeves (6) that enclose an optical-fibre splice. The cylindrical body has at each end at least one recess for fastening the tension-relieving core (3) of the optical cables by means of a screw (5). The smallest permitted bending radius of the optical fibres determines the curved shape of the cylindrical body. The cylindrical body and the spliced optical fibres are enclosed by an outer casing (9). The invention also relates to a method of splicing optical-fibre cables.
