OPTICAL FIBER RIBBON DUCT CABLE
The present disclosure provides an optical fiber cable. The optical fiber cable includes a plurality of optical fibers lying substantially along a longitudinal axis of the optical fiber cable. Further, the optical fiber cable includes a first layer surrounding the plurality of optical fibers. Furthermore, the optical fiber cable includes a second layer surrounding the first layer. Furthermore, the optical fiber cable includes a third layer surrounding the second layer. Moreover, the optical fiber cable includes a fourth layer surrounding the third layer. The first layer is a water blocking tape. The second layer is a buffer tube layer made of polyethylene material and foamed with master batch. The third layer is a water blocking tape. The fourth layer is a sheath made of polyethylene material. Moreover, the fourth layer has a plurality of strength members embedded inside the fourth layer.
