The single mode fiber meets or exceeds the ITU-T Recommendation G.652.D/G.657.A1 including the IEC 60793-2-50 type B1.3/B6.a1 Optical Fiber Specification.
It offers good resistance to additional losses due to low macro bending in the 1600 nm wavelength region. This not only supports L-band applications but also allows for easy installation without excessive care when storing the fiber, for example, in splicing cassettes. For cable use inside buildings, the fiber supports installation with small cable bending radii and compact organizers. The bending induced loss at 1625 nm no more than 0.5 dB for one wind with 10 mm radius.
