The existing optical fiber cable has the defects of strength and tensile capacity, has hidden danger of breakage in the bending process and at two ends of the cable, has single function, has a plurality of inconveniences in the current signal transmission process, and generally needs to be provided with an optical cable and an electric cable at the same time, but the optical fiber is not resistant to bending, and can cause the breakage of the optical fiber.
The invention patent with publication number of CN105542366 discloses an optical fiber ribbon-and-resin, an optical fiber ribbon and a central tube type optical fiber ribbon optical cable, which comprises a loose tube, a protective layer coated outside the loose tube, a reinforcing piece positioned outside the protective layer and a sheath layer coated with the protective layer and the reinforcing piece, wherein a plurality of optical fiber ribbons are arranged in the loose tube, each optical fiber ribbon is provided with a plurality of optical fibers and the optical fiber ribbon-and-resin which is used for integrally coating the plurality of optical fibers, and the optical cable has better water resistance, but the plurality of optical fibers are coated with the optical fiber ribbon-and-resin in a parallel and integral manner, so that the optical cable has poorer tensile resistance.
The invention patent with publication number of CN 104570252 discloses an optical fiber ribbon cable, wherein a loose tube comprises an optical fiber ribbon body and a loose tube body which is used for wrapping the optical fiber ribbon body, the optical fiber ribbon body is composed of an optical fiber ribbon lamination body and optical fiber ribbons which are positioned at the left side and the right side of the optical fiber ribbon lamination body, and the optical fiber ribbon lamination body is formed by sequentially laminating a plurality of optical fiber ribbons up and down.
