The present invention provides a cassette for coiling at least one optical fiber
provided with a splice protection, in which said optical fiber is to be wound in
such a manner as to fit closely against an inside peripheral wall of said cassette,
said cassette being provided with two entry points in the vicinity of said inside
peripheral wall to enable two portions of said optical fiber situated on either
side of said splice protection to penetrate into said cassette. According to the
invention, said entry points are provided with guide means so that said two portions
wind in the same direction, and said splice protection takes up a non-predetermined
position in said cassette. The present invention is more particularly adapted to
coiling a flat optical fiber ribbon having a splice.
