| 1Attenuation is a worst-case value, quoted for the shortest design wavelength. | |
| 2The wavelength range is the spectral region between the cutoff wavelength and the bend edge, in which the fiber transmits the TEM00 mode with low attenuation. For this fiber, the bend edge wavelength is typically 200 nm longer than the cut-off wavelength. At the operating wavelengths between 633 nm and 780 nm, the launched power must be considered carefully as these fibers have germanosilicate cores and as such as susceptible to color center generation. | |
| 3The Mode Field Diameter is a nominal, calculated value, estimated at the operating wavelength(s) using typical value of numerical aperture and cut-off wavelength. | |
