Abstract

In a split type ribbon optical fiber core cable capable of being split into cables, there are a plurality of ribbon optical fiber core cable units, each of which are constituted by a plurality of colored optical fiber core cables arranged in a row; a coating resin of an ultraviolet curable resin wholly coats the plurality of colored optical fiber core cables; and a bonding resin of an ultraviolet curable resin bonds the ribbon optical fiber core cable units arranged in a row. In this cable, an adhesion strength between the coating resin and the bonding resin is in the range of 1 to 100 g/cm. Further, the bonding resin after curing has a Young's modulus of from 5 to 100 kg/mm.sup.2. The bonding resin after curing has an elongation coefficient of from 5 to 80%.
