FutureGuide®-BIS-B-200 NEW ITU-T G.657.A2 (+ 200µm Coating Diameter)

Recent trends in optical fiber networks demand optical fibers having reduced attenuation to help long distance transmission and bend insensitiveness for harsh installation conditions. FutureGuide®-Ace is an enhanced fiber categorized as ITU-T G.652.D from Fujikura. It offers zero(low)-water peak attribute that enables all-band transmission and superior reduced-attenuation characteristics, while converging bend insensitiveness complying with ITU-T G.657.A1. Also the fiber ensures backward compatibility with all existing conventional networks based on G.652 fibers. FutureGuide®-Ace helps cable manufacturers to design cost-effective and aggressive higher fiber-count cable designs that assist telecom operators to plan for higher fiber density installations. Furthermore, reduced attenuation characteristics ensure longer transmission distance with less number of amplifiers and thus contributes to the reduction of total cost. FutureGuide®-Ace is suitable from long-haul to access networks of 40Gbps, 100Gbps and beyond.

FTTH (Fiber to the Home) is the hottest topic in Today's telecommunication industry. For compact storage in tight space of a building, Fujikura has developed FutureGuide®-SR15E, allowing smaller fiber bending radius compared to the standard G652 fiber without reducing the signal. FutureGuide®-SR15E is suitable for aerial drop cable, indoor cable, patch cord or any FTTx application cable.

Fujikura PANDA fibers have a superior optical property in polarization-maintaining because of the symmetrical accuracy in cross section and the uniform constitution of stress applying parts. Based on Fujikura's fiber technology, PANDA fibers have a universal quality with not only low polarization-crosstalk and low attenuation but also the broad suitability for fusion-splice or optical connector.

As the number of channels increases with DWDM, the higher intensity of light in a fiber induces various non-linear effect of light, causing signal distortion in a long span. Fujikura have developed FutureGuide®-LA, which is designed for inhibiting non-linear effect with non-zero dispersion characteristic at 1530-1565nm region and with large effective area, offering for long distance DWDM transmission in C and L bands.
