AllWave® ZWP Ocean Optical Fiber

Developed by Lightera, AllWave ZWP Ocean Fiber is made with a patented manufacturing process that permanently removes the water peak defect to ensure low and stable loss performance in the 1400 nm band and over the lifetime of the cable. AllWave ZWP Fiber offers the lowest loss of all commercial low water peak fibers in the industry.

In addition to its full-spectrum low optical loss, AllWave ZWP Ocean Fiber offers the tightest available geometry, low splice loss, and low polarization mode dispersion (PMD). All lengths are proof tested to 200 kpsi to meet the stringent requirements of ocean cable.

AllWave ZWP Ocean Fiber is available as uncolored fiber or in engineered, colored and spliced sets. It is an excellent solution for dispersion compensation in ocean systems utilizing Lightera’ TrueWave® SRS and TrueWave XL fibers.

Features And Benefits

  • A patented manufacturing technology that permanently removes the water peak defect for low optical loss across the entire spectrum from 1260 to 1625 nm
  • Long-term attenuation reliability due to the use of high purity synthetic silica
  • Ultra-low fiber PMD for highest bit rates
  • The industry’s tightest geometric control for lowest splice loss

Overview

AllWave® Fiber, the industry’s first Zero Water Peak (ZWP) single-mode fiber, is also available for ocean applications. A full-spectrum fiber designed for optical transmission systems operating over the entire wavelength range from 1260 nm to 1625 nm, it offers ocean customers industry-leading performance specifications, superior reliability, and unsurpassed quality.

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.
