| 20090317039 | Fiber optic cable having armor with easy access features - The present disclosure is generally directed to a fiber optic cable including a cable core and an armor surrounding the cable core. The cable core has at least one optical fiber and the armor includes one or more lines of scoring extending along a longitudinal length of the armor, thereby creating a dedicated location for the craft to open the armor to access the cable core and optical fibers therein. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100111480 | ARMORED FIBER OPTIC ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME - Armored fiber optic assemblies are disclosed that include a dielectric armor along with methods for manufacturing the same. The dielectric armor has an armor profile, thereby resembling conventional metal armored cable to the craft. The dielectric armor provides additional crush and impact resistance and the like for the optical fibers and/or fiber optic assembly therein. The dielectric armor is advantageous to the craft since it provides the desired mechanical performance without requiring the time and expense of grounding like conventional metal armored cables. Additionally, the armored fiber optic assemblies can have any suitable flame and/or smoke rating for meeting the requirements of the intended space. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20100260459 | Armored Fiber Optic Assemblies and Methods of Forming Fiber Optic Assemblies - Cables have dielectric armor with an armor profile that resembles conventional metal armored cable. The dielectric armor provides additional crush and impact resistance for the optical fibers and/or fiber optic assembly therein. The armored cables recover substantially from deformation caused by crush loads. Additionally, the armored fiber optic assemblies can have any suitable flame and/or smoke rating for meeting the requirements of the intended space. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100278492 | Armored Fiber Optic Assemblies and Methods of Forming Fiber Optic Assemblies - Cables have dielectric armor with an armor profile that resembles conventional metal armored cable. The armor can be formed as a single layer, without requiring an outer jacket layer. The dielectric armor provides additional crush and impact resistance for the optical fibers and/or fiber optic assembly therein. The armored cables recover substantially from deformation caused by crush loads. Additionally, the armored fiber optic assemblies can have any suitable flame and/or smoke rating for meeting the requirements of the intended space. The assemblies can additionally be lightweight and relatively inexpensive to manufacture. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20100290747 | Dry Fiber Optic Cables and Assemblies - A fiber optic cable includes at least one optical fiber, at least one strength member, armor components, and a cable jacket. The cable jacket has a cavity with a generally rectangular cross-section with the armor components disposed on opposite sides of the cavity. | 11-18-2010 |
