Abstract

The present disclosure provides a rollable optical fiber ribbon. The rollable optical fiber ribbon includes a plurality of optical fibers positioned along a longitudinal axis of the rollable optical fiber ribbon. In addition, the rollable optical fiber ribbon includes a matrix material covering the plurality of optical fibers. Each of the plurality of optical fibers is placed adjacent to other optical fiber of the plurality of optical fibers. Each of the plurality of optical fibers with a diameter of about 210±5 micron is spaced at a pitch in a range of about 250 microns to 255 microns. The rollable optical fiber ribbon is corrugated from a first side and a second side to enable rolling of the rollable optical fiber ribbon in circular fashion.
