Abstract

A method for producing an optical fiber cable which improves stability by attaching an Aramid yarn near the core in parallel to an axial direction of the optical cable and solves structural problems of the cable by soaking an Aramid yarn into an epoxy resin is disclosed. This optical cable producing method uses a tensile material for improvement of tensile property, and includes the steps of soaking the tensile material into an epoxy resin, and attaching the tensile material to the optical cable in parallel to the axial direction of the optical cable.
