摘要: An optical fiber cable includes a central element, extending along a longitudinal axis of the optical fiber cable, and a plurality of routable subunits, each routable subunit having a rigidly stranded ribbon stack and a tight buffer layer surrounding the ribbon stack, wherein the subunits are SZ-stranded around the central element to form a cable core. A binder film continuously and contiguously surrounds the plurality of routable subunits along the longitudinal axis and a cable sheath continuously and contiguously surrounds the binder film along the longitudinal axis, wherein the cable sheath has an inside surface and an outside surface, the inside surface defining an elliptical shape and the outside surface defining a generally circular shape

摘要: A ribbon handler assembly holds an optical fiber ribbon during thermal stripping, cleaving and mass fusion splicing. The handler assembly includes a body defining a ribbon channel in an upper surface, an array section of fiber grooves extending longitudinally a predefined length from one end of the ribbon channel, wherein a nominal spacing of each individual groove of the array section of fiber grooves is greater than a nominal fiber spacing of fibers in an optical fiber ribbon configured to be placed into the ribbon channel.

摘要: Provided are embodiments of an optical fiber cable. The optical fiber cable includes a cable jacket with an inner surface and an outer surface in which the inner surface defines a central cable bore and in which the outer surface defines an outermost surface of the optical fiber cable. The optical fiber cable includes from 48 to 864 optical fibers disposed within the central cable bore. Further, the outer surface of the cable jacket defines a cable diameter of at least 2 mm and up to 11 mm. The optical fiber cable has a fiber density of at least 7.5 optical fibers/mm2 based on a cross-sectional area of the optical fiber cable as measured from the outer surface of the cable jacket.

摘要: An optical fiber cable includes a jacket and a plurality of stranded core subunits, each core subunit comprising a flexible sheath and a plurality of ribbons arranged in a ribbon group, wherein each ribbon of the plurality of ribbons comprises a plurality of connected fibers such that 50-70% of the cross-sectional area inside the sheath is occupied by the connected fibers. The flexible sheath may be an extruded PVC material that conforms to the shape of the ribbon stack and keeps all of the ribbons acting as a unitary body during bending.

摘要: An optical fiber carrying structure that includes a jacket is provided. The jacket includes a primary body portion formed from a first polymer material and one or more marking regions formed from a second polymer material. Indicia are formed in at least one of the marking regions. The indicia are formed from a laser-induced change to the second polymer material exposing the first polymer material.
