  • Patent number: 10725257
    Abstract: A fiber optic cable comprises a core subassembly, comprising at least one optical transmission element, wherein the optical transmission element comprises at least one optical fiber and a tube surrounding the at least one optical fiber. The fiber optic cable further comprises a jacket surrounding the core subassembly. The jacket is configured as a multi-layered jacket that comprises an inner layer comprising a first flame retardant material, an intermediate layer comprising a second flame retardant material being different from the first flame retardant material of the inner layer, and an outer layer comprising a non-flame retardant material having a lower coefficient of friction than the first and the second flame retardant material.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9784935
    Abstract: A fiber optic cable comprises a core subassembly comprising at least one optical fiber and a tube surrounding the optical fiber. A multi-layered jacket surrounds the core subassembly, wherein the jacket comprises an inner layer comprising a flame retardant (FR) material and an outer layer comprising a non flame retardant material having a lower coefficient of friction than the flame retardant material. A method of manufacturing an optical fiber cable includes providing a core subassembly and co-extruding a multi-layered jacket around the core subassembly, wherein the multi-layered jacket includes an inner layer comprising a flame retardant (FR) material and an outer layer comprising a non flame retardant material having a lower coefficient of friction than the flame retardant.
