OPTICAL CABLE AFTER BRANCHING CLOSURE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an optical cable after branching closure wherein all coated optical fibers are stored on a common base tray and moreover a coated optical fiber connected to one side of coated optical fiber is not crossed with a coated optical fiber connected to the other side of coated optical fiber. SOLUTION: One side of core wire connecting part housing part 21 for housing one side of core wire connecting part, one side of slack part housing part 22 for housing the slack part of the coated optical fiber of one side of branching optical cable 8, the other side of core wire connecting part housing part 23 for housing the other side of core wire connecting part, and the other side of slack part housing part 24 for housing the slack part of the coated optical fiber of the other side of branching optical cable 11 are separately provided within the common base tray 18 arranged along a cable core 3 in the inside of the closure casing in different positions in the width direction so that one side of the coated optical fiber and the coated optical fiber connected to it are not crossed with the other side of coated optical fiber and the coated optical fiber connected to it.
