  • Abstract
    A large preform for 220 km of fibre was fabricated with the vapour-phase axial deposition (VAD) method. The deposition rate for the core was 1.7 g/min. Optical fibre drawn from a part of the preform had optical attenuation of 0.58 dB/km and bandwidth 500 MHz km0.9 at a wavelength of 1.3 ¿m.
