Abstract
A nonmetallic high-fiber-count cable that contains fiber ribbons inserted tightly into slots and has tensile force applied to the central and slotted-rod unit strength members is described. The cable bending flexibility, tensile strain, and cable diameter, which are important for its economical and efficient construction, were theoretically and experimentally evaluated and an optimum combination of diameters for the strength members was obtained. Based on the results, a nonmetallic 1000-fiber cable was manufactured and its transmission, mechanical, and water-blocking performances were confirmed to be excellent. >
