655 Optical Cable Attenuation
The standard specifies the geometrical, mechanical, and transmission attributes of a single-mode optical fibre as well as its cable. 655 has the cable cut-off wavelength and cable attenuation coefficients in the C and L bands. This specification covers Optical Ground Wire Cables (OPGW) for the installation on high voltage overhead power lines. This single mode fibre supports high-power signals and longer distances, as well as closely spaced DWDM (dense WDM) channels at rates.
