Disclosed are fiber optic assemblies having at least one optical fiber and at least one water-swellable yarn disposed within a tube that preserves optical performance. Optical performance is preserved by selecting water-swellable yarns for the fiber optic assemblies that are softer and loftier since at least some of the filaments have a textured characteristic. In one embodiment, the water-swellable yarn has a stretch ratio of about 2 or more, where the stretch ratio is defined as the nominal unstretched diameter divided by the nominal stretched diameter. In another embodiment, the water-swellable yarn has a textured elongation factor of about 2% or more. Additionally, embodiments may position the optical fibers radially outward of the water swellable yarn(s), thereby further preserving optical performance.

A fiber optic cable includes at least one optical fiber, at least one strength member, armor components, and a cable jacket. The cable jacket has a cavity with a generally rectangular cross-section with the armor components disposed on opposite sides of the cavity.

摘要:
Disclosed are fiber optic cables and assemblies for routing optical networks closer to the subscriber. The fiber optic cables have a robust design that is versatile by allowing use in aerial application with a pressure clamp along with use in buried and/or duct applications. Additionally, the fiber optic cables and assemblies have a relatively large slack storage capacity for excess length. Assemblies include hardened connectors such as plugs and/or receptacles suitable for outdoor plant applications attached to one or more ends of the fiber optic cables for plug and play connectivity.

Fiber optic cables and assemblies for routing optical networks closer to the subscriber. The fiber optic cables have a small-cross section yet robust design that is versatile by allowing use in aerial application with a pressure clamp along with use in buried and/or duct applications. Additionally, the fiber optic cables and assemblies have a relatively large slack storage capacity for excess length. Assemblies include hardened connectors such as plugs and/or receptacles suitable for outdoor plant applications attached to one or more ends of the fiber optic cables for plug and play connectivity.
