A combination ITU-T G652.D and G657.A1 compliant fiber, AllWave+ Fiber delivers low and stable loss in the 1360 nm -1460 nm E-band, enabling 16-channel CWDM, DWDM and FTTX support on a single fiber. In addition, this fiber's bend performance far exceeds G.652.D and complies with G.657.A1, supporting a minimum bend radius of 10 mm and lower bend loss than conventional single-mode fibers.
While this low bend loss improves performance and reliability, it also helps to lower installation costs by allowing the use of smaller cables and terminals. AllWave+ Fiber has the same 9.2 micron mode field diameter as and is fully backward compatible with the installed base of G.652 single-mode fiber for seamless splicing, testing and faster network turn-up.
