Abstract: A fiber optic ribbon cable includes a stack of fiber optic ribbons, strength members surrounding the stack, and a jacket defining an exterior of the cable. The jacket forms a cavity through which the stack and the strength members extend. The stack has a bend preference, but the strength members are positioned around the stack or are flexible in bending such that the strength members do not have a bend preference. Furthermore, the jacket is structured such that the jacket does not have a bend preference. The cavity is sized relative to the stack in order to allow the stack to bend and twist within the cavity with respect to the jacket as the cable bends, facilitating movement of the optical fibers of the fiber optic ribbons to low-stress positions within the cavity and decoupling the bend preference of the stack from transfer to the jacket.

Abstract translation: 光纤带状电缆包括一叠光纤带，围绕该堆叠的强度构件以及限定该电缆的外部的夹套。 护套形成堆叠和强度构件延伸穿过的空腔。 该堆叠具有弯曲偏好，但是强度构件定位在堆叠周围或弯曲灵活，使得强度构件不具有弯曲偏好。 此外，外套的结构使得外套不具有弯曲优先权。 空腔的尺寸相对于叠层而言是为了允许叠层在电缆弯曲时相对于外壳在空腔内弯曲和扭转，从而便于光纤带的光纤移动到空腔内的低应力位置 并将堆叠的弯曲偏好从传送到夹克解耦。

Abstract: A fiber optic cable includes a first optical fiber (314), a jacket (312), and a second optical fiber (316). The first optical fiber is configured to guide a transmission of light through the fiber optic cable. The jacket has an interior surface (318) that defines a conduit through which the first optical fiber extends, and the jacket further has an exterior surface that defines the outside of the fiber optic cable. The second optical fiber is integrated with the exterior surface of the jacket and emits light from its side for visible tracing of the cable.
