Abstract (en)

A telecommunications cable having no metal sheath, but having a plurality of equally pre-tensioned and inextensible tensile members (14) embedded in the cable jacket. These members are spaced apart around the core (12) and extend longitudinally of the cable to apply an axially compressive force upon the jacket. The members may be glass fibers and each member is preferably a roving of fibers. The filaments may be coated with a material which sticks them to the jacket and the core may be filled with a moisture blocking material.
