Optical fibres are housed in loose tubes that are made of high-modulus plastic and filled with water blocking yarns. The tubes are stranded around the central strength member to form a cable core. The core is covered by water-blocking tape (and armored with laminated aluminum tape or corrugated steel tape). Finally, a PE outer sheath is extruded.
