摘要:
A cable and a cable stripping method which facilities the stripping of an intermediate part of a cable having a cable core covered by a plastic sheath provided around the outer periphery without damaging the cable core. In a cable having a plastic sheath 2 on a cable core 1, either a groove 2a is provided in the inner surface of the plastic sheath 2 extending in the longitudinal direction of the cable. A ripcord 3 is either fitted in the groove 2a or adhered to the inner surface of the plastic sheath. In either case, the position-indicating means 2b showing the position of the ripcord is provided on the outer surface of the plastic sheath 2 at the point where the ripcord 3 is fitted.

A spacer having a high-tensile member at the center thereof has grooves extending helically. Coated optical fibers have been disposed in each groove. This assembly is covered with a wound covering and further with a sheath. The proportion of the total sectional area of the coated optical fibers to the sectional area of each groove, i.e., the degree of packing, is regulated to 10 to 50%.

The invention is to provide an optical fiber cable in which an end of an optical fiber core is prevented from being dragged inside the main cable body part upon the application of a tension on the optical fiber cable, and which prevents the increase in transmission loss and breakage of the optical fiber core caused by the movement of the optical fiber core near the connection point. The invention can be characterized in that an optical fiber cable is formed in such a manner that yarns are stranded in a periphery of the stack of the optical fiber ribbons, and an outer sheath of the main cable body part is formed with a tension member united thereto on the periphery of the yarns.

An optical fiber cable in which optical fiber ribbon stack can be accommodated in a cylindrical space efficiently and which has excellent loss characteristic. A plurality of optical fiber ribbons 1 are stacked. Cushioning fillers 2 are disposed around the optical fiber ribbon stack 1. The optical fiber ribbon stack 1 and the cushioning fillers 2 are accommodated in a cylindrical member 3. The space factor of the cushioning fillers in the inner space of the cylindrical member as a remainder after removal of the optical fiber ribbon stack from the inner space is from 10 to 60%. Consequently, the optical fiber cable becomes excellent both in initial transmission loss and in loss increasing characteristic at a low temperature.

An optical cable has an S-Z stranded part in which plurality of chamber elements containing optical fibers are assembled around a central member in an S-Z strand in the state where their bottom faces are in contact with the central member. Each chamber element has such a characteristic that its flexural rigidity in the depth direction of its fiber containing cavity is smaller than that in the widthwise direction thereof. Assuming, of distortion energy of the chamber element in an S-Z reverse portion within the S-Z stranded part, the distortion energy in the case where the bottom face of the chamber element is in contact with the central member to be U.sub.1, and the distortion energy in the case where a side face of the chamber element is in contact with the central member to be U.sub.2, a relational expression of .DELTA.U=U.sub.1 -U.sub.2 .ltoreq.0.2(mJ/mm) is satisfied.

摘要:
An optical cable has a plurality of one-groove spacers 3 which are twisted in one direction around a central member 1. Anti-tensile elements 2 are arranged in the central portion of the central member 1. Each one-groove spacer having a single groove which is linear lengthwise and substantially square in cross section and holding a stack of a plurality of optical fiber ribbons 4. The inner width and the height of the side walls of the groove of the one-groove spacer are set greater than the diagonal length of the stack. Therefore, the transmission loss becomes reducible because the contact portions of the optical fiber ribbons with respect to the side walls of the grooves vary in the longitudinal direction, thus preventing a specific number of optical fibers from being continuously subjected to edgewise pressure.

In the optical cable in accordance with the present invention, the reversal angle &phgr; from one reverse portion to the next reverse portion in an S-Z type helical groove is at least 180 degrees; and, letting W, T, and n be the width and thickness of each optical fiber ribbon and the number of stacked sheets of optical fiber ribbons, respectively, and a and b be the width and depth of the helical groove, respectively, at least each reverse portion of the helical groove has a cross-sectional form satisfying: nT
摘要:
An optical cable has a plurality of optical fibers. The optical fibers are contained in fiber containing cavities of chamber elements. Each chamber element has a bottom part and a pair of side wall parts, which defines a fiber containing cavity. The individual chamber elements containing the optical fibers are assembled around a thickening layer in an S-Z strand. Each side wall part is formed such that its thickness gradually decreases from its base end portion toward free end portion. Also, the thickness of the bottom part is greater than the thickness of each side wall part.

The present invention relates to a dispersion-shifted fiber having a structure which can restrain the bending loss caused by enlargement in mode field diameter from increasing. This dispersion-shifted fiber is a single-mode optical fiber mainly composed of silica glass and has a cutoff wavelength not shorter than the wavelength of signal light at its length of 2 m and a zero-dispersion wavelength within the range of 1.4 .mu.m to 1.7 .mu.m. Further, the mode field diameter in this dispersion-shifted fiber is 9.0 .mu.m or more.

One or more optical fiber elements each constituted by a coated glass fiber are fed to an over-coating device and an over-coating is applied to the optical fiber elements in a lump, the feeding speed of the optical fiber elements to the over-coating device is made larger than the take-up speed of the over-coated optical fiber onto a take-up reel so as to give longitudinal compression strain to the glass fibers of the over-coated optical fiber. The glass fiber has compression strain of not less than 0.03% to less than 0. 10% in a longitudinal direction thereof at room temperature.
