A splittable optical fiber ribbon has a decreased propensity for fiber fallout along a longitudinal split. Fibers adjacent to a split location, called border fibers, have increased bond strength between their ink-coating and a surrounding matrix material. The bond strength is increased by first partially curing an ink that covers the border fibers, coating the partially-cured fibers with a matrix material, and then substantially fully curing the ink and the matrix material substantially simultaneously. The ribbon may include one or more grooves to enhance splitting the ribbon into subsets.

L'invention concerne un ruban à fibres optiques divisible qui possède une propension diminuée à subir une chute de fibres le long d'une fente longitudinale. Des fibres adjacentes à un emplacement de fente, appelées fibres de bordure, présentent une résistance d'adhésion accrue entre leur revêtement d'encre et un matériau de matrice environnant. On augmente la résistance d'adhésion en cuisant partiellement une encre qui recouvre les fibres de bordure, en enduisant les fibres partiellement cuites d'un matériau de matrice, puis en cuisant sensiblement totalement l'encre et le matériau de matrice sensiblement simultanément. Le ruban peut comporter une ou plusieurs rainures destinées à augmenter la division du ruban en sous-ensembles.
