Common use of Chromatic Dispersion Clause in Contracts

Chromatic Dispersion. (i) Chromatic Dispersion is the broadening or spreading of a pulse of light due to the nonzero spectral width of a transmission signal. The effects of chromatic dispersion can limit the network transmission rate or the length of fiber a signal can be transmitted before requiring re-generation. (ii) Specifications – Chromatic Dispersion (iii) Record the total Chromatic dispersion for the tested span, the value per kilometer should be within the range specified below. SMF (ITU-T 6.652.D) ≤18 ps/(nm*km) ELEAF (ITU-T G.655) 4 ps/(nm*km) TrueWave RS (ITU- T G.655) 4.5 ps/(nm*km) TrueWave Classic (early G.655) 2 ps/(nm*km)
