ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for branching individual light waveguide leads out of an uncut light waveguide cable, which method includes removing a portion of the cladding of the cable in a first region over a sufficient distance to enable obtaining access to a lead and to cut the lead, applying a sleeve over this first region, removing a portion of the cladding in a second region spaced from the first region with the amount of spacing corresponding to the desired length of the lead to be spliced, pulling the cut lead out in the second region, forming the splice to a branch connection and then holding the excess lead and splice and applying a second sleeve over the second region. The arrangement includes two sleeves which are spaced a desired distance for the lead and a holding device, such as a splice cassette, for the excess portion of the lead and for holding the splice.
