摘要：
A communications cable (20) comprising a core (22) of at least one transmission media and a plastic jacket (34) includes provisions for preventing the movement of water within the cable. The cable includes a strength system (32) including longitudinally extending fibrous strength members (33--33) having a relatively high modulus and having water blocking provisions. In one embodiment, each fibrous strength member is treated with a superabsorbent liquid material which when dry fills interstices and covers portions of the exterior thereof. In another embodiment, a filamentary strand material comprising a water swellable fibrous material is wrapped about each fibrous strength member.
