Corning® LEAF® optical fiber is the world’s most widely deployed non-zero dispersion-shifted fiber (NZDSF). Typically deployed in non-coherent long-haul and metro networks, LEAF fiber combines low dispersion and low loss. This ITU-T G.655.D-compliant fiber enables improved performance flexibility and compatibility with emerging network technologies with industry-leading performance.
LEAF fiber is built to withstand decades of demands in challenging environments and can be used in multiple network architectures. It can help existing networks evolve from 10G to the 40G and 100G systems of the future.
