WidePass™(Low Water Peak Fiber)
Lower cost upgrade enabled
Uniform low attenuation and optimized dispersion
 
 
SAMSUNG's WidePass™ single-mode optical fiber (ITU-T G.652.C/D) is designed to provide full optical transmission over the entire operating wavelength range from 1260 nm to 1625 nm (O, E, S, C, L-band). It has a low attenuation in E-band (1360 nm to 1460 nm) by eliminating the water peak permanently, which opens up the unusable band for additional bandwidth expansion. WidePass™ fiber complies with ITU-T G.652.C and G.652.D requirements and meets or exceeds not only the current industry standards, but also customers' expectations. WidePass™ fiber is optimized for metropolitan and access area network applications and its longterm reliability is guaranteed over the entire life time of the cabled fiber. With even more improved and reinforced specifications in major optical and geometrical parameters, Samsung's WidePass™ single-mode optical fiber is the product of choice for current and future optical networks.
