Fiber optic cables and their mechanical properties-a tutorial

$15.00

There is little data on the long-term stability of optical fibers. Cables have been developed with major emphasis on maintaining the mechanical and optical properties for a 20 to 40 year life time. The tutorial discusses design considerations, performance data and field experiences of optical cables that will enable you to make the best purchasing decision.
