The name of indoor tight-buffered 'non-breakout' style cables is Distribution cables. These cables feature several tight-buffered fibers bundled under the same jacket with strengtheners, which makes them less robust than breakout cables but more suitable for short, dry conduit runs and easy to handle than loose tube cables.
