Abstract:
Disclosed is an optical transmission fiber having reduced bending and microbending losses that is commercially usable in FTTH or FTTC transmission systems.
Abstract:
An optical transmission fiber comprises a central core having an index difference Δn1 with an outer optical cladding; a first inner cladding having an index difference Δn2 with the outer cladding; and a second buried inner cladding having an index difference Δn3 with the outer cladding of less than −3.10−3. The second buried inner cladding moreover contains Germanium in a weight concentration of between 0.5% and 7%.The fiber shows reduced bending and microbending losses whilst exhibiting the optical performances of a standard single-mode fiber (SSMF).

Abstract:
The invention relates to an access network for exchanging communication signals between a transit network and at least one communication medium of a user. The communication medium is operatively connected to an exchange by means of an optical fibre connection for exchanging the communication signals, and the exchange is connected to the transit network. The fibre connection comprises at least one multimode fibre, which is bent over at least one first part of its length, in such a manner that the fibre comprises at least one complete winding in the first part thereof mainly for maintaining one or more modes of the communication signals into the fibre. Said modes have been selected from a group comprising the ground mode and one or more lower modes near the ground mode.

Abstract:
An optical fibre having an NA-value of less than 0.34, which optical fibre is built up of a core and an enveloping protective coating, wherein the protective coating forms the outer layer of the optical fibre, which optical fibre has an NA-value ranging from 0.15 to 0.30, with the overall external diameter of the optical fibre corresponding to the internal diameter of an element into which the end of the optical fibre is inserted.
Abstract:
The invention provides a coupling device for monochromatic optical signals based on the amplitude division method. The optical signal emerging from one light guide is divided by means of one or more diffraction gratings among three or more outgoing light guides. Inversely, the optical signals from a number of light guides can be combined into one optical signal. Such a coupling device has a high optical efficiency, is mode-independent and produces small differences in light intensity between the branch signals.
