    摘要: An optical communication cable is provided having a cable body with an inner surface defining a passage within the cable body and a plurality of core elements within the passage. A film surrounds the plurality of core elements, wherein the film directs a radial force inward onto the plurality of core elements to restrain and hold the plurality of core elements in place.

    摘要: A fiber optic cable includes core elements wound in a pattern of stranding, the core elements comprising tubes surrounding optical fibers. The fiber optic cable further includes an binder film surrounding the stranded core elements. The binder film is continuous peripherally around the core elements, forming a continuous closed loop when viewed in cross-section, and continuous lengthwise along a length of the cable that is at least a meter. Further, the binder film is in radial tension and opposes outwardly transverse deflection of the core elements.
