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. Further, the optical waveguide cable includes a plurality of cylindrical enclosure substantially concentric to the longitudinal axis of the optical waveguide cable. The plurality of cylindrical enclosure includes a predefined cylindrical enclosure. Furthermore, the one or more optical waveguide bands include a plurality of light transmission elements. Moreover, the density of the predefined cylindrical enclosure is at most 0.935 gram per cubic centimeter. Also, the optical waveguide cable has a waveguide area factor about 44%. The one or more optical waveguide bands are coupled longitudinally with the predefined cylindrical enclosure. The predefined cylindrical enclosure is at a predefined diagonal distance of about 0.9 millimeter from the one or more optical waveguide bands.
