Abstract: The present invention provides an optical fiber cable (102) including a plurality of optical transmission elements (104), and a metallic layer (108) surrounding the plurality of optical transmission elements (104). Further, the optical fiber cable (102) includes a sheath (114) surrounding the metallic layer (108), wherein the sheath (114) is at least in partial contact with the metallic layer (108). An inner surface of the sheath (114) has a first set of ribs (110) that are deformed at substantial regular intervals along the length of the sheath (114). The arrangement of the optical fiber cable (102) allows an easy separation/peel off of the sheath (114) from the metallic layer (108) in a cost-effective manner as it does not require any additional material or tool. The structure of the optical fiber cable (102) reduces bonding between the sheath and the metallic layer.

Abstract: The present invention provides an optical fiber cable (102) including a plurality of optical transmission elements (104), and a metallic layer (108) surrounding the plurality of optical transmission elements, a sheath (114) directly surrounding the metallic layer, wherein the sheath is at least in partial contact with the metallic layer.
