The utility model discloses a ribbon optical cable, which comprises a
fiber core unit, a shielding layer, a reinforcing layer and a weather-proof sheath layer, and is characterized in that the
fiber core unit is formed by arranging a plurality of single-mode optical fibers at intervals along the length direction of the cross section of the ribbon optical cable; the shielding layer wraps the outer side of the
fiber core unit, the shielding layer is provided with a plurality of hollow cavities on the cross section of the optical cable, and the hollow cavities are arranged among the single-mode optical fibers; the reinforcing layer coats the outer side of the shielding layer; the weather-proof sheath layer wraps the outer side of the reinforcing layer. According to the arrangement, the shielding layer between the fiber core unit and the reinforcing layer can shield
eddy current generated by materials in the reinforcing layer in a high
electromagnetic field environment,
signal attenuation can be prevented, the shielding layer is provided with a plurality of hollow cavities on the cross section of the optical cable, each hollow cavity is arranged among the single-mode optical fibers, and due to the existence of the hollow cavities, the shielding layer can be used for shielding the
eddy current generated by the materials in the reinforcing layer in a high
electromagnetic field environment. The bending performance and the compression resistance of the ribbon optical cable are enhanced, the structural design of the optical cable is optimized, and the service life of the ribbon optical cable is prolonged.
