最基本的是, an optical fiber is a glass thread, which can transmit messages modulated onto light waves. 有 2种主要类型 光纤, 单模(SM)光纤, 哪个只有一条路径, through a much smaller core, 多模光纤, which has a large core 和 allows for multiple paths through the fiber.
Single-Mode 光纤
The Fiber is the Network™
OFS is a world-leader in the design 和 manufacture of single-mode optical fiber for 应用程序 including transcontinental, 区域, 大都会, 家庭/企业访问, in-building fiber optic systems.
的OFS Single-mode 光纤 Selection Guide for terrestrial 应用程序 is a quick reference guide for a general underst和ing of OFS single-mode fiber types 和 应用程序. This guide describes several families of OFS fiber 和 provides recommendations for 单模光纤 中使用的 室外厂房(OSP) 以及 Indoor (前提, Enterprise) 应用程序.
Selecting the right fiber for your application can help lower system costs. Characteristics such as lower loss, 更大的有效面积, 优化色散, tight bend performance can provide economic benefits compared to using a st和ard G.652D单模光纤. Please contact OFS for a more thorough explanation of the various fiber value propositions to assist in the selection process.
的OFS single-mode product portfolio single-mode product portfolio includes the following families of optical fiber:
- TeraWave®- ITU-T G.654 long haul fiber with an optimized large effective area designed especially to support coherent systems.
- TrueWave®- ITU-T G.655和/或G.656 Non-Zero Dispersion fibers (NZDF) that have optimum chromatic dispersion characteristics to simplify 和 reduce the cost of dispersion compensation.
- AllWave®- ITU-T G.652.D st和ard 单模光纤. AllWave Zero Water Peak (ZWP) Fibers provide seamless splicing 和 can be used everywhere from long haul to shorter reach in-building 应用程序. Some of these fibers are also G.657兼容的.
- AllWave FLEX 和EZ-Bend®是ITU-T G.657 Bend Insensitive 单模光纤.
- TeraWave ® SCUBA 110 海洋 光纤
- TeraWave line of ocean fibers.
多模光纤
OFS is also a world-leader in the design 和 manufacture of 多模光纤. 我们的 product portfolio offers 高带宽 OM3, OM4, OM5 graded-index 多模光纤 designed to support a wide range of short-reach, 基于VCSEL的局域网, 中心办公室, Data Center 应用程序. 我们的 LaserWave® laser-optimized multimode fibers cost-effectively support enterprise network speeds up to 400Gb/s 和 beyond. LaserWave WideB和 (OM5) fiber supports the latest short wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) 应用程序 developed to maximize multimode fiber’s data carrying capacity. DMD-controlled to provide optimum performance with laser sources, LaserWave optical fiber is designed 和 manufactured with a carefully controlled refractive index profile to achieve low attenuation, 高带宽 和 longer link distances. The superior geometry of OFS multimode fiber results in easier cabling 和 better connector 和 transceiver coupling performance. Please contact OFS for a more thorough explanation of the various fiber types 和 to assist in the selection process.
特种纤维
OFS, through its predecessor companies, has been designing 和 manufacturing 特种纤维 since the mid 1970’s 和 today offers a broad range of st和ard 和 custom versions.
