Abstract

An optical cable includes an optical fiber ribbon core wire provided with an optical fiber having a core and a cladding that surrounds the core, a sheath that surrounds the optical fiber ribbon core wire, and a braid arranged inside the sheath. The braid is formed to include wires woven with each other. In the optical cable, the wire that forms the braid is pushed into the sheath so that the sheath is integrated with the braid.
