Abstract: A multimode optical fiber includes a core region in having silica and an outer radius, R. A cladding of the fiber surrounds the core region and includes silica. The core region has a refractive index profile with a radially-dependent alpha. The radially-dependent alpha is given by α(r)=f(r).

Abstract: Methods for modifying multi-mode optical fiber manufacturing processes are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for modifying a process for manufacturing multi-mode optical fiber includes measuring at least one characteristic of a multi-mode optical fiber. The at least one characteristic is a modal bandwidth or a differential mode delay at one or more wavelengths. The method further includes determining a measured peak wavelength of the multi-mode optical fiber based on the measured characteristic, determining a difference between the target peak wavelength and the measured peak wavelength, and modifying the process for manufacturing multi-mode optical fiber based on the difference between the target peak wavelength and the measured peak wavelength.

Abstract: Methods of selecting, from a set of like optical fibers, a subset of optical fibers that can meet both short-wavelength and target-wavelength bandwidth requirements are disclosed. The method includes obtaining short-wavelength bandwidth data from DMD measurements, and determining a peak wavelength for each optical fiber. A target-wavelength bandwidth is then calculated using the determined peak wavelengths. The calculated target bandwidth is then compared to the short-wavelength and target-wavelength bandwidth requirements to identify which of the optical fibers satisfy these requirements.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for converting a legacy 850 nm optical-fiber link in a data center to a 1310 nm optical-fiber link. The methods include accessing the primary optical fiber of the legacy 850 nm optical-fiber link and optically connecting thereto one or more sections of compensating optical fiber. The resulting 1310 nm link has a peak wavelength of nominally 1310 nm and supports a bandwidth of greater than 2 GHz·km and a data rate of at least 25 Gb/s.
