  • Abstract
    The penetration of optical fiber cables into subscriber loop systems, currently in the initial or growing phase in many countries, is discussed. Current optical fiber cable and cable connection technologies that permit fast responses to network configuration changes are reviewed. Future cables and operation technologies, such as ultra-high-density cables, modules for remote automatic operation, and integrated smart cable operating systems are described.<>
