ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic cable is provided with an outer jacket material having a coefficient of thermal expansion less than approximately 6E−5 in the range from 23° C. to −50° C. By utilizing an outer jacket material having a reduced coefficient of thermal expansion, the need for rigid strength members within the outer jacket is eliminated, thereby providing a fiber optic cable having a reduced size and weight.
