OPTICAL FIBER BRANCHING/DISTRIBUTING METHOD, AND OPTICAL FIBER SEAT AND STORAGE TRAY USED THEREIN

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently install/execute optical fiber branching/connection in a closure or a termination box, and to construct an optical network at a low cost. SOLUTION: In the optical fiber branching/distributing method, for connecting a plurality of optical fibers 55A, 55B in a storage tray 3, there is provided in the storage tray 73 an interwoven body, e.g., an optical fiber seat 77 for which a woven part 75 with a plurality of optical fibers 55A, 55B preliminarily crossed is fabricated as a module, that the plurality of optical fibers 55A, 55B which are separated into an IP system and a RF system are connected to the introducing side 79 of the woven part 75 of the optical fiber seat 77, and that one each circuit of the IP system and the RF system is distributed per subscriber on the distributing side 87 of the interwoven body through the woven part 75.
