ABSTRACT:
A room temperature vulcanizable silicone rubber having a high coefficient of thermal expansion is provided at the interface between an optical fiber and a surrounding fiber reinforced resin shell in a cable construction. The surrounding rubber because of high coefficient thermal expansion shrinks more than the optical fiber or the resin shell during the manufacture operation. This relieves radial compressive loads on the optical fiber and prevents the distortion of the optical fiber by the surrounding fiber reinforced shell in manufacture and use. As a consequence, light transmission qualities are not impaired.
