Abstract:
An optical communication cable and related systems and methods are provided. The optical cable includes a plurality of wrapped core elements, and the outer surfaces of adjacent wrapped core elements are joined together by discrete bond sections. The discrete bonds sections may be structures such as laser welds, ultrasonic welds, or adhesive material. The discrete bonds hold the wrapped core elements together in the wrapped pattern, such as an SZ stranding pattern.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 9 , wherein wrapping includes forming a wrapped pattern including a plurality of left-handed spirally wrapped sections, a plurality of right-handed spirally wrapped sections and a plurality of reversal sections providing transitions between the left-handed spirally wrapped sections and the right-handed spirally wrapped sections, wherein the bonded subsections maintain the first, second and third core elements in the wrapped pattern without an external binding element applying an radially inward force.
