Abstract:
1. Apparatus for signal transmission between terminals, between which at least one cable is arranged, which is accommodated in an essentially circular cassette, to which ongoing cables can be connected at the terminals, and whose length is greater than the distance between the terminals, said cassette comprising: a rotor which can rotate about its axis and bears at least one terminal; and a stationary stator which bears at least one terminal, said rotor and stator delimit a circular accommodating area having a rectangular cross section, which serves the purpose of accommodating the cable, has a cover face and a base, running parallel thereto, and whose clear axial height can be changed in a variable manner by means of at least one intermediate base, wherein the rotor has a cylindrical hub, which runs in the axial direction of the cassette and on which means are provided for fitting the intermediate base, which runs parallel to the cover face and the base of the accommodating area, is arranged at a distance from them, extends at least essentially over the entire radial width of the accommodating area and divides the accommodating area in a variable manner according to the height or width of the cable to be inserted into the cassette into a smaller area for the cable and an empty area.
