ABSTRACT:
Tensile strength of a tape layer in the lengthwise direction is selected to be higher than adhesive force of the tape layer to optical fiber cores.Further, position limiting portions111by which the positions of a plurality of optical fibers120can be limited are formed in a flexible film110for tape core assembly which film is used for integrating the plurality of optical fibers120as a tape.Further, a ribbon-like optical fiber core assembly301according to the invention including a plurality of optical fiber cores302arranged planarly at designated intervals, an adhesive layer305disposed so as to surround the optical fiber cores302, and films304aand304bintegrated with the optical fiber cores302by the adhesive layer305.
