Abstract :
In this talk, the author addresses telecommunication applications, constraints, limitations, and (dis)advantages of fibers, with special focus on attenuation/amplification, chromatic dispersion, polarisation mode dispersion, and fibre nonlinearities. Some guidance for future development is included
