A fiber optic distribution cable includes a central inner jacket formed from one of a polyvinyl chloride or a low smoke zero halogen material, a plurality of optical fibers disposed within the inner jacket, and a plurality of first strength members disposed within the inner jacket. The fiber optic distribution cable further includes an outer jacket surrounding the central inner jacket, the outer jacket formed from the one of the polyvinyl chloride or the low smoke zero halogen material, and a plurality of second strength members disposed between the outer jacket and the central inner jacket. A fiber density of the cable is greater than 0.65 fibers per square millimeter.

Reduced diameter ruggedized fiber optic distribution cables

A downhole strain sensing cable includes a core optical unit which includes a plurality of optical fibers. A fiber-reinforced polymer matrix layer surrounds and contacts the core optical unit. An extrusion layer surrounds and contacts the fiber-reinforced polymer matrix layer. An outer metal tube surrounds and contacts the extrusion layer.

Downhole strain sensing cables

A downhole logging cable includes a core conductor unit and a core optical unit. The core conductor unit may include a conductor and a jacket which surrounds and contacts the conductor. At least one metal tube may surround the core conductor unit and core optical unit, such that the core conductor unit and core optical unit are disposed in an interior of the at least one metal tube. A filler may be provided in the interior surrounding the core conductor unit and core optical unit.
