Patent ID: 7961999

Claim:
An optical waveguide distribution device for providing optical connectivity between optical waveguides, the device comprising: a housing; a distribution panel mounted in the housing, the distribution panel having a front wall, a base wall, side walls, and guiding elements for optical waveguides; a plurality of couplings positioned on the front wall of the distribution panel for plugs of first optical waveguides; and at least one splice cassette for placing splices between the first optical waveguides and second optical waveguides, wherein the second optical waveguides are introduced into the distribution panel via a cable, wherein the splice cassette, is removably connected in a first position to the distribution panel in the region of the base wall, and wherein the splice cassette is able to be moved from the first position and connected in a second position on the front wall of the distribution panel which is removably connected to the distribution panel in such a manner that the front wall can be displaced or repositioned relative to the distribution panel together with the splice cassette.
