  • Abstract
    A 30.4 km graded-index fibre has been fabricated by the vapour-phase axial deposition (v.a.d.) method. Optical-time-domain reflectometry was used to characterise the loss uniformity along the longitudinal direction of this fibre. Measured transmission loss and 6 dB bandwidth with good uniformity along this long fibre were 0.54 dB/km and 1200 MHzkm at the 1.3 ¿m wavelength, respectively.
