An optical fiber cable has a plurality of loose tubes, each containing at least one optical fiber which is wound to form a loose helical configuration. The loose tubes each contain one or more filamentary members of superabsorbent material. The loose tubes are arrayed around a central organizing member and the assembly is surrounded by a strength member forming a jacket. The strength member is layered with superabsorbent material and the empty spaces within the jacket contain yarn members of superabsorbent material. The entire assembly is surrounded by an outer jacket of suitable material, preferably fire resistant.
