    摘要: A fiber optic cable including at least one optical fiber and at least one dry insert disposed within a cavity of a cable jacket and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The dry insert has a first thickness and a second thickness located at different longitudinal locations along the dry insert, where the first thickness is greater than the second thickness. The region of the cable having the first thickness of the dry insert provides and/or increases the coupling level of the at least one optical fiber to the cable jacket. In further embodiments, the optical fiber(s) have a predetermined level of coupling to the cable jacket that is about 0.1625 Newtons or more per optical fiber for a thirty meter length of fiber optic cable.

    摘要: A preconnectorized outdoor cable streamlines the deployment of optical waveguides into the last mile of an optical network. The preconnectorized outdoor cable includes a cable and at least one plug connector. The plug connector is attached to a first end of the cable, thereby connectorizing at least one optical waveguide. The cable has at least one optical waveguide, at least one tensile element, and a cable jacket. Various cable designs such as figure-eight or flat cables may be used with the plug connector. In preferred embodiments, the plug connector includes a crimp assembly having a crimp housing and a crimp band. The crimp housing has two half-shells being held together by the crimp band for securing the at least one tensile element. When fully assembled, the crimp housing fits into a shroud of the preconnectorized cable. The shroud aides in mating the preconnectorized cable with a complimentary receptacle.

    摘要: A tubeless fiber optic cable is disclosed, including at least one optical fiber extending in a longitudinal direction, and an outer jacket extending in the longitudinal direction so as to surround the optical fiber. The outer jacket has a cross-section defining an inner surface and an outer surface. At least one strength member extends in the longitudinal direction along the outer jacket and is disposed so that a portion thereof protrudes from the inner surface of the outer jacket, so that when a ripcord is pulled from the outer jacket separation of the outer jacket occurs, thereby allowing access to a cavity containing the optical fiber. In another embodiment, the ripcord protrudes from the inner surface of the outer jacket.

    摘要: A self-supporting fiber optic cable includes messenger and carrier sections and at least one interconnecting web. The messenger section includes at least one support member and a protective jacket. The carrier section includes a tube, at least one optical fiber disposed within the tube, and a jacket. In order to protect the optical fiber from tensile forces and to facilitate mid-span access, the carrier section can have an overlength. In order to accommodate the overlength, the web can include a plurality of intermittent webs that permit the carrier section to bend. The carrier section can also include at least one strength member. The at least one strength member is preferably positioned in a reference plane that also generally extends through the messenger section, the carrier section and the web. By appropriately positioning the strength members relative to the tube, the carrier section preferentially bends in a plane generally orthogonally disposed to the reference plane. As a result, the fiber optic cable not only accommodates the overlength of the carrier section, but also facilitates the winding of the fiber optic cable upon a reel for shipment and storage.

    摘要: A fiber optic cable including at least one optical fiber disposed within a cavity of a cable jacket and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The cavity has a first cavity cross-sectional area and a second cavity cross-sectional area located at different longitudinal locations along the cable, where the first cavity cross-sectional area is greater than the second cavity cross-sectional area. The region of the second cavity cross-sectional area of the cable provides and/or increases the coupling level of the at least one optical fiber to the cable jacket. In further embodiments, the fiber optic cable is a dry cable having one or more dry insert within the cavity for cushioning and/or optionally providing water-blocking for the cable.
