Keywords:
Fiber Optics, Monomode Fibers, Networks, Long DistanceAbstract
This paper offers an updated summary of the UIT standards on monomode fibers. Thus, indications for an appropriate selection of fibers according to their use and requirements of optical transmission network links are described. As the author focuses on long distance networks, only standards from G series —652-656— are mentioned.
