    Abstract: The single mode optical fiber disclosed herein has a core, an inner cladding, a trench and an outer cladding, along with a non-glass protective coating. The refractive index profile of the optical fiber is such that the optical fiber has relatively low bend loss at both small and large bend diameters. The relative refractive indices of the inner cladding, trench and outer cladding are such that a tunneling point that arises during bending is pushed out beyond the trench and thus sufficiently far away from the core so that bending losses for both small and large radius bends are relatively small.

    Abstract: A fiber having a large effective area at 1550 nm of at least 130 μm2 and a wire mesh drum microbending loss of less than 0.4 dB/km at a wavelength of 1550 nm. The fibers may include a core, a cladding, and a coating. The core may include a central core region and a surrounding first core region. The cladding may include a depressed index inner cladding region and an outer cladding region. The coating may include a primary coating surrounding the cladding and a secondary coating surrounding the primary coating. The primary coating may be formed from a primary composition that may include an acrylate monomer or an N-vinyl amide monomer in combination with an acrylate oligomer, where the acrylate oligomer is present at 35 wt % to 55 wt %. The secondary coating may be formed from a secondary composition including one or more acrylate or diacrylate monomers and an acrylate or methacrylate oligomer, where the oligomer is present at 3 wt % or less.

    Abstract: An optical fiber having a silica-based core region with an outer radius r1 from about 4.0 microns to about 4.6 microns and a core volume from about 4.5% Δ-micron2 to about 5.5% Δ-micron2. The optical fiber further includes a depressed-index cladding region and an outer cladding region. The depressed-index cladding region having an inner radius r2 such that r1/r2 is greater than about 0.4 and less than about 0.6 and a trench volume between about −50% Δ-micron2s and about −20% Δ-micron2. The optical fiber has a mode field diameter at 1310 nm from about 8.8 microns to about 9.4 microns, a 2 m cable cutoff from about 1120 nm to about 1260 nm, a bending loss at 1310 nm, as determined by the mandrel wrap test using a 15 mm diameter mandrel, of less than 1.0 dB/turn, and a zero dispersion wavelength between 1300 nm and 1324 nm.
