High Strength Rapid Payout Fiber Optic Cable Assembly.

Abstract

This report summarizes preliminary results obtained in the investigation of the feasibility of a fiber optic cable payout assembly capable of high speed payout with simultaneous optical transmission. The results of both cable design studies and payout assembly (dispenser) design studies are described. Experimental results for both optical attenuation and payout performance are provided. (Author)
