The utility model discloses a hollow-core and
solid-core
hybrid optical fiber cable, which belongs to the technical field of hollow-
core optical fiber cables and comprises at least one hollow-
core optical fiber, and each hollow-
core optical fiber comprises a hollow-core unit and a wrapping layer. The
hollow core unit comprises a plurality of
hollow core glass tubes which are annularly arranged at equal intervals, and the
hollow core glass tubes provide air
fiber cores for the hollow core
optical fiber to complete optical
signal transmission; the cladding is a
quartz cladding, and at least two
solid fiber cores are arranged in the cladding; the axis of the
solid fiber core and the axis of the hollow
glass tube are both parallel to the axis of the hollow fiber. The optical cable provided by the utility model not only can meet the end face positioning requirement when the end face of the hollow-core
optical fiber is centered and welded, but also can enable the hollow-core optical fiber to have the capability of
breakpoint detection, meets the application of the OTDR technology in the hollow-core optical fiber, improves the application and maintenance convenience of the hollow-core optical fiber, and is matched with the mixed cabling of the hollow-core optical fiber and the G.652D, G.654E or G.655 solid-core optical fiber, so that the service life of the hollow-core optical fiber is prolonged, and the service life of the hollow-core optical fiber is prolonged. The comprehensive performance and the application range of the
hybrid optical cable are greatly improved, and the
hybrid optical cable has excellent practical value.
