Described are new cable designs for indoor installations wherein the cable
comprises a dual-layer optical fiber buffer encasement of acrylate resin.
The buffer encasement has an acrylate compliant inner layer that protects
the fiber and minimizes stress transfer to the fiber; and a hard, tough
acrylate outer layer that provides crush resistance. The dual-layer
optical fiber buffer encasement is wrapped with reinforcing yarn and
encased in an outer protective jacket.
