Fiber ribbons provide compact, cost effective packaging of optical fibers. In a fiber ribbon cable, individual fibers can be easily identified and accessed. Fiber ribbons can also be considered as an intermediate cabling structure. We given an overview of fiber ribbon cables, fiber ribbons, and discuss reliability related issues and test procedures.
