Single-mode fibre ITU-T G.652.C/D and IEC 60793-2-50 B 1.3, with lower cabled loss
Enhanced single-mode fibre (ESMF) with lower secured cabled loss in all the transmission bands, including the highest ones (L and
U-bands), intrinsically more sensitive, provides further improved and secured performance across the entire spectrum; such
premium attenuation level inside the finished cable, even in demanding environments, are offered through superior microbending
resilience of the fibres used while still preserving all parameters and characteristics of G.652.C/D fibres, made possible using a fine-
tuned glass optimization combined with the use of a highly performing protective coating.
Single-mode ITU-T G.656 & G.655.C/E and IEC 60793-2-50 B 4_c/e & B5
NZDSF with Medium Dispersion values, as described by recommendation ITU-T G.656 and more recently the G.655.E one, have set
the standard for high bit-rate, multi-wavelength transmission. Those fibres are designed with a global transmission optimization in
target, aiming at containing the detrimental effects of chromatic dispersion while in parallel aiming at using the properties of such
dispersion to contain non-linearities still. They offer a unique trade-off between effective area, chromatic dispersion and dispersion
slope thus providing an excellent transmission distortion management, cost-effectively; they secure operation at 10, 40 and
100Gbps per channel, tight channel spacing in C- and L-bands, and compatibility with the S-band; a definite step further for long-
haul and ultra-long-haul applications.
