Abstract
An optical fiber cable employs a central strength member fabricated from a dielectric material which member is surrounded by a plurality of peripheral tubes each having a hollow loosely containing an optical fiber. The tubes are fabricated from a plastic having embedded therein glass fibers to offer additional strength to the tubes to thereby permit a substantial reduction in the cross-section of the central support member which now serves in conjunction with the tubes to provide strength to the overall cable.
