Abstract
An optical fiber cable with movable rip cord is provided. The optical fiber cable (100, 200, 300) comprises a core (110) having one or more optical transmission elements (114), a first layer (106) surrounding the core, a second layer (102) surrounding the first layer, wherein the second layer is relatively harder than the first layer and one or more rip cords (108) placed between the first layer and the second layer such that the one or more rip cords have a degree-of-angular movement less than ±d, wherein d is an angular distance between two consecutive rip cords of the optical fiber cable. The first layer is deformed radially towards a central axis (X) of the optical fiber cable in vicinity of the one or more rip cords, wherein deformation (116) of the first layer is equal to or greater than a diameter of the one or more rip cords.
