Abstract
The present invention relates to an optical fiber cable (100, 200, 300, 400) comprising a plurality of optical fibers (102), a deformable skeleton structure (104), and a sheath (106) surrounding the plurality of optical fibers (102) and the deformable skeleton structure (104). In particular, the sheath (106) and the deformable skeleton structure (104) forms a plurality of slots (108) such that one or more optical fibers of the plurality of optical fibers (102) are positioned inside one or more slots of the plurality of slots (108).
Claims20
An optical fiber cable (100, 200, 300, 400) characterized in that:
- a plurality of optical fibers (102);
- a deformable skeleton structure (104);
- and
- a sheath (106) that surrounds the plurality of optical fibers (102) and the deformable skeleton structure (104) such that the sheath (106) and the deformable skeleton structure (104) forms a plurality of slots (108),
- wherein one or more optical fibers of the plurality of optical fibers (102) are positioned inside one or more slots of the plurality of slots (108).
An optical fiber cable (100, 200, 300, 400) characterized in that:
- a deformable skeleton structure (104), wherein the deformable skeleton structure (104) when exposed to water, has a swelling height of greater than 5 mm;
- a sheath (106);
- and
- a plurality of optical fibers (102) housed between the regions between the deformable skeleton structure (104) and the sheath (106).
