Bend Tolerant Dual-Core Fiber and Cable for Balanced Photonic Links

摘要

A multicore fiber optic cable comprising of a dual core optical fiber having a dual core optical fiber geometry, the cores are spiraled parallel to one another along the longitudinal axis of the fiber to negate link path length difference, a coating that surrounds the fiber, a buffer tube that surrounds the coated fiber, a strength member that surrounds the buffer tube, and an outer jacket that surrounds the strength member.
