Mercury's low-curvature single-mode fiber is designed to exhibit improved properties in all wavelength regions of 1265-1625 nm and exhibits low macro-banding loss properties in all wavelengths. Mercury LBRF is well suited to ITU-T G.652 & G.657 and is suitable for loose tube cables, ribbon cables, and all other fiber optic cable designs. It is particularly suitable for FTTH network applications by maintaining enhanced low-curvature properties.
