In an arrangement for producing a branch in a telecommunications cable (,) containing several stranded elements with optical fibers, at least one stranded element is cut, the optical fibers of the stranded element are spliced to the optical fibers of a branch line (,), and the branched area is protected with a sleeve (,). The branch line (,) comprises a number of optical fibers, each of which is loosely arranged by itself in a small plastic tube (,). A predetermined length of the tube (,) is removed from approximately the middle of the optical fiber elements, and each optical fiber (,) from which the tube (,) has been removed is stored in a cassette (,). The cassettes (,) are stored in a container (,). The sleeve housing (,) is stored in a container (,). The sleeve housing (,) with the cassettes (,) and the branch line (,) with the optical fibers (,) located in the tube (,) are a unit which is prefabricated at the factory.

In an underground configuration housing for telecommunication devices, a mechanically stable housing, which is closed by a removable cover, has an installation located inside which supports at least one telecommunication device. The installation supporting the telecommunication devices is a pot-shaped container with a cylindrical insert positioned therein so as to form a gap therebetween. The container is sealed in water-proof fashion by a removable cover and the telecommunication devices are located inside of the cylindrical insert.
