Abstract

An optical fibre cable includes first and second optical fibres 1, 2 held together by a coating 3 of a waterproof material such as partially cured silicone rubber, which can be cleanly peeled from the fibres. The waterproof material 3 is covered by an inner sheath 4 of thermoplastics material. Strengthening strands 5 typically of Kevlar material run longitudinally of the cable outside the inner sheath 4. An outer sheath 6 surrounds the strands 5. <IMAGE> [GB2096343A]
