Corning® Vascade® Optical Fibers Product Information CORNING Vascade® Optical Fibers Customized Solutions for Maximum Performance and Reliability The Corning® Vascade® family of submarine optical fibers provide high-speed, high-capacity solutions for transoceanic and short-haul submarine networks, guaranteeing the performance and reliability necessary in the harsh undersea environment. Submarine systems, from unrepeatered networks spanning a few hundred kilometers to repeatered networks spanning the world's oceans, demand the most advanced optical technologies. Each Vascade fiber type has a unique optical profile to allow customized system solutions, however, they all share the fundamental characteristics inherent to Coming's submarine fibers: high mechanical reliability, high optical stability, and matched and managed optical properties. In addition to individual Vascade fibers, Corning also offers customized Vascade fiber solutions with coloring High Mechanical Reliability Submarine fiber-optic cables experience high tension during deployment and recovery from the ocean floor. With this in mind, every Vascade fiber is subjected to a 1.38 GN/m2 (200 kpsi) proof test, double that of the typical terrestrial fiber. In addition, Corning has dedicated manufacturing lines reserved especially for Vascade fibers. Coming's patented manufacturing process ensures high-quality fibers that offer maximum performance and economic advantage for your network. Vascade fibers are colored and spliced in a clean room environment and receive additional strength testing to ensure the fiber's long-term reliability. Comprehensive Fiber Data Corning Vascade fibers come with an unparalleled wealth of measured data. Coming's state-of-the-art measurement systems allow us to provide comprehensive fiber data packages for every spool of fiber. Coloring Options To meet the unique requirements of each submarine network, all Vascade fibers can be supplied PI1445 I ISSUE:AUGUST 2010 | SUPERSEDES:AUGUST 2008 | TL9000/ISO9001 REGISTERED

Individual Vascade® Optical Fibers A large effective area fiber, Vascade L1000 fiber has applications in both repeatered and unrepeatered submarine systems. In unrepeatered systems, Vascade L1000 fiber's large effective area design allows for launching higher optical power in the fiber without significant non-linear penalties. As a result, Vascade L1000 fiber can offer longer reach and higher capacity. Vascade LS+ fiber is a non-zero dispersion shifted fiber (NZ-DSF) with negative dispersion and low positive dispersion slope that is optimal for medium distances and wide band wavelength...

Vascade® RIOOO Fiber Solution Coming's Vascade R1000 dispersion-managed fiber (DMF) solution combines Vascade Liooo and Vascade S1000 fibers in a single-span, offering higher capacity and closer channel spacing than is possible with any other solution. By adjusting the ratio of the constituent fibers, spans of Vascade R1000 fiber solution are manufactured to meet individual customer dispersion requirements. By careful fiber selection, Corning maintains an average dispersion slope that is typically <0.005 ps/nm2/km when the dispersion is compensated back to zero. This is an order of...
