Ten-core multimode fiber
This fiber is a graded-index multimode fiber suitable for transmission speeds of up to 10 Gb/s. ◆ In this research, we succeeded for the first time in the world in combining optical signals of different optical types (modes) by using a multi-core structure and optical coupling between three adjacent cores. Multimode Fiber (MMF) has a core diameter, typically 50–100 micrometers, has ability to transfer multiple modes of light through the fiber core, uses lower-cost electronics (LED, VCSEL) operates at the 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelength and is used for short distance interconnections (up to 550m). Apart from the OM1 type, all of them are bending-optimized fiber incorporating technology to deliver enhanced macro-bending performance produced by a unique Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition.
