PURPOSE: A fig-8 type aerial optical cable is provided to improve winding and bendability by forming a seam of aramid yarn. CONSTITUTION: The cable part(120) covers the optical fiber element(110). The messenger part(140) covers the heart wood. The connection part(130) interconnects the cable part and messenger part along the longitudinal direction to be formed between the cable section and messenger part. The seam is formed by the aramid fiber. The seam is formed by mutually twisting the aramid fiber. The optical fiber element is inserted within the cable part.
