  • Low-smoke and flame-retardant fiber optic cables
    Patent number: 8625947
    Abstract: The present invention relates to flame-retardant fiber optic cables. The fiber optic cables include reinforcing materials that generate low smoke levels and exhibit improved performance during burn testing. The fiber optic cables are capable of meeting burn testing requirements without employing expensive, high-performance cable jacketing and buffering compounds.

  • Buffer tube having a high fiber count ribbon stack packaging configuration and corner cushions
    Patent number: 6744955
    Abstract: A buffer tube and fiber optic cable having an optimized ribbon stack packaging configuration, minimized attenuation problems and a reduced overall cable diameter and weight is provided. Specifically, a packaging configuration utilizing parallel lying and perpendicular lying fiber ribbons is configured into a ribbon stack having a square shape or cross-type configuration. Cushions may be placed between the high-fiber count ribbon stack and buffer tube walls thus enabling the ribbon stack to center itself within the tube thereby decreasing attenuation problems.
