A fiber optic fan-out cable having optical sub-units. The optical sub-units are disposed about a central member, at least some of the optical sub-units each respectively comprising a sub-unit jacket, strength fibers, and at least one respective optical fiber ribbon therein. The optical fiber ribbon including a plurality of optical fibers, the strength fibers generally surrounding and contacting the optical fiber ribbon within the sub-unit jacket. A cable jacket surrounds the central member and defines an annular space wherein the optical fiber sub-units are disposed about the central member. The annular space including essentially no strength fibers therein outside of the sub-unit jackets, the strength fibers being essentially located within the optical sub-unit jacket with the respective optical fiber ribbons. Sub-units are generally helically stranded about the central member. <IMAGE> |
