ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns an optical-fiber cable containing at least one optical-fiber module including a plurality of optical fibers assembled and held together by a flexible resin so as to define a ribbon, the ribbon inside the cable being rolled up so that its longitudinal edges substantially touch each other, and so that it is substantially cylindrical in shape, wherein the flexible resin is applied asymmetrically relative to the midplane of the ribbon in the unrolled state, which midplane contains all of the longitudinal axes of the fibers, and wherein the ribbon is rolled up by bringing its longitudinal edges together so that the majority of the resin is located inside the convex volume defined, when the ribbon is in the rolled-up state, by the surface that contains all of the longitudinal axes of the fibers.
