ABSTRACT:
A strand element for an optical cable which strand element has several light waveguide fibers for transmission of light waves received in a protective casing which surrounds the fibers and has an internal interior diameter which is larger than the exterior diameter of a hypothetical cylinder which surrounds the fibers characterized by each of the fibers being surrounded by a soft elastic material and being stranded with one another, and the space between the stranded optical fibers and the protective casing, which is capable of resistance, being filled with an easily shapeable filling compound which remains very soft and which displays no tendencies towards aging, melting or freezing.
