<p>A fiber optic cable includes an inner jacket and an outer jacket. The inner jacket surrounds an optical fiber and a strength layer positioned between the optical fiber and the inner jacket. The inner jacket includes a liquid crystal polymer within a base polymeric material. The outer jacket defines an elongate transverse cross-sectional profile. A strength member is positioned outside the inner jacket. The outer jacket is removable from the inner jacket such that the fiber optic cable forms a first cable portion that extends from a first end of the fiber optic cable to an intermediate location of the fiber optic cable and a second cable portion that extends from the intermediate location to a second end of the fiber optic cable. The first cable portion is more rugged than the second cable portion.</p>
