Bend-Optimized SM Fiber
CasaLight™ Fibre
Introduction
CasaLight™ is fully compliant with ITU-T G.657 class A, the new international
recommendation defining the tougher performance requirements for optical fibers in today’s Optical
Access Networks. Its optimized design allows CasaLight™ to exhibit excellent macrobending
performance even when used under extreme conditions.
Neon™ Plus coating
CasaLight™ is available with Neon™ Plus, the latest generation of coatings,
based on the highly acclaimed Neon™ coating used by Prysmian worldwide for more than 10 years. This
Neon coating system adopted by CasaLight™ (and by all other fibrers manufactured by Prysmian)
additionally provides enhanced resistance to ‘high power’ effects which can result in coating burns
and glass fusion in certain amplified systems under severe bend conditions.
Compatibility
CasaLight™ is also in compliance with ITU-T Recommendation G.652 and has
satisfied all IEC testing requirements for transmission, mechanical and environmental performance.
CasaLight™ has optimal spliceability with G.652 fibers thanks to its very similar chemical
composition and to its best-in-class geometrical parameters. This makes CasaLight™ a fiber truly
compatible both with other fiber types and with optical systems employed globally.
