AllWave® FLEX ZWP Ocean Optical Fiber

AllWave FLEX ZWP Ocean Fiber maintains very low bending loss while ensuring long-term fiber strength and reliability. It can be coiled into a 20 mm diameter loop with a

The fiber enables more compact designs and protects the network against excessive loss resulting from inadvertent fiber bends. It is less susceptible to physical disturbances from cable flexing, pulling, and crushing. The optimized bend characteristics of AllWave FLEX ZWP Ocean Fiber improve cable performance in demanding high-stress and low-temperature environments by providing double the microbend protection of conventional single-mode fiber.

Features And Benefits

  • Improved bend performance up to 1625  nm: added loss <0.5 dB (1625 nm) and <0.2 dB (1550 nm) at 10 mm radius
  • Bend-optimized design without risking fiber strength and long-term reliability
  • Tight geometry for very low splice loss
  • Fully compatible with single-mode fiber international standard G.654C
  • Patented manufacturing technology that  permanently removes the water peak defect for low optical loss across the  entire spectrum from 1260 to 1625 nm

Overview

AllWave® FLEX Single-Mode Ocean Fiber is the first Zero Water Peak (ZWP) fiber to offer outstanding bend performance for ocean applications. It is an excellent choice for ocean riser applications or for cable designs that require a highly bend-resistant fiber. AllWave FLEX Ocean Fiber meets the requirements of G.654C.

Product Description

AllWave FLEX ZWP Ocean Fiber maintains very low bending loss while ensuring long-term  fiber strength and reliability. It can be coiled into a 20 mm diameter loop with a <0.5 dB  incurred loss at 1625 nm and <0.2 dB incurred loss at 1550 nm – five times better bending  performance than conventional single-mode and leading low water peak (LWP) fibers. 

The fiber enables more compact designs and protects the network against excessive  loss resulting from inadvertent fiber bends. It is less susceptible to physical disturbances  from cable flexing, pulling, and crushing. The optimized bend characteristics of AllWave  FLEX ZWP Ocean Fiber improve cable performance in demanding high-stress and lowtemperature environments by providing double the microbend protection of conventional  single-mode fiber.

Engineered Fiber Sets

Lightera has the capability to color and splice ocean fibers to meet stringent cable requirements. Fibers are selected to meet customer specifications for numbers of fibers, colors, lengths, and transmission properties. They are then assembled into sets. Final measurements guarantee customer specified performance for all fibers in the set.
