- 39 - The described ribbon optical fibre cable comprises a cylindrical core (9) provided, on the outer surface thereof, with parallel grooves (10) extending in a helical manner along the cable axis, at least a pair of ribbons (1) being radially superposed within at least one of said grooves (10). Each ribbon (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e) comprises a plurality of optical fibres (2) each of which is covered with a primary layered coating (3), and a common coating (4) covers all the optical fibres of the ribbon. The primary coating (3) is formed with a first layer (5) directly in contact with the fibres (2) and a second layer (6) external to the first layer (5), the modulus of elasticity of said first layer (5) being lower than the modulus of elasticity of said second layer (6). Applied to each ribbon (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e) is a longitudinal tension greater than the longitudinal tension applied to the ribbon radially overlying the former. The process for making this ribbon optical fibre cable provides for the ribbons (1) being laid into the grooves by applying to each ribbon (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e) a longitudinal tension greater than the longitudinal tension applied to the ribbon radially superposed thereto. Figure 2.
