Abstract :
A low-loss dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber cable has been fabricated. The index-profile of the fiber is nearly parabolic and the relative index difference is 0.8 percent. An average cable loss is 0.229 dB/km at 1.55 μm, and excellent loss stability has been achieved in the cabling process and in the temperature and mechanical test.
