Abstract
The present disclosure provides an optical waveguide cable. The optical waveguide cable includes one or more optical waveguide bands positioned substantially along a longitudinal axis of the optical waveguide cable. The optical waveguide cable includes one or more layers substantially concentric to the longitudinal axis of the optical waveguide cable. The one or more layers include a cylindrical enclosure. The one or more optical waveguide bands include a plurality of light transmission elements. The density of the cylindrical enclosure is at most 0.935 gram per cubic centimeter. The optical waveguide cable has a waveguide factor of about 44%. The one or more optical waveguide bands are coupled longitudinally with the cylindrical enclosure.
