| 摘要 |
In one of the embodiments there is disclosed a self healing optical fiber cable assembly (10) comprising an elongated optical fiber core (12) having a cladding layer (14), a buffer layer (16), a sealing layer (18) that seals any microcracks or defects in the buffer layer (16), the cladding layer (14), and the optical fiber core (12), and, an outer protection layer (20), wherein an end of the outer layer (20) is connected to a strain relief device (24) to provide expansion protection to the cable assembly (10) and to minimize strain on the cable assembly (10), and further wherein an end (26) of the strain relief device is connected to an optical fiber module (28). The cable assembly (10) may further comprise a constraining layer and/or a strengthening layer. There is also disclosed a method of making a self healing optical fiber cable assembly. |
