Abstract
The present disclosure provides an optical fiber cable. The optical fiber cable includes a strength member made of a composite material made of a polymer matrix. The strength member is centrally located. The strength member lies substantially symmetrical along a longitudinal axis of the optical fiber cable. In addition, the optical fiber cable includes a plurality of fiber units. Moreover, the optical fiber cable includes an outer jacket. The outer jacket surrounds the plurality of fiber units. Each of the plurality of fiber units includes one or more optical fibers, a first covering layer, a second covering layer and a gel. The first covering layer is enclosed by the second covering layer. Each of the one or more optical fiber cables is enclosed by the first covering layer.
