Fiber Optic Backbone Network Is Facing Upgrade G.654.E Will Become A Competitive Place For Fiber Optic Manufacturers

   With the continuous emergence of emerging technologies and services such as cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things and streaming media, the backbone network transmission rate will continuously upgrade from 100G to 200G/400G and other higher rates. Operators put forward higher requirements for single-fiber capacity. G.654.E fiber will be the preferred fiber for 200G, 400G and future Tbit/S ultra-high-speed transmission technologies.

   With the promotion of new infrastructure, it is expected that the three major operators will build more than 550,000 5G base stations in 2020, 5G construction has entered the golden construction cycle, and the optical network, an important link in the 5G industry chain, is constantly being upgraded.

   It is predicted that in the next two to three years, the market share of the super 100G network will exceed 60%, and 400G+ will become the mainstream application of the super 100G network.

   The current g. 652 optical fiber used in the network can no longer meet the transmission needs of the future optical transmission network with ultra-high speed, ultra-large capacity and ultra-long distance.

   For the next generation optical transmission network, lower fiber attenuation coefficient or larger fiber effective area is more conducive to ultra-high-speed, ultra-large capacity and ultra-long distance optical communication transmission. G.654.E fiber, with its characteristics of large effective area and low loss, has become the mainstream choice for operators to build 5G network.

   It is the best choice for 400G/1T system that G.654.E fiber can meet the two characteristics of ultra-low loss and large effective area at the same time.

  By 2019, China Mobile‘s inter-provincial backbone has deployed more than 120,000 skins of long-kilometer optical fiber, and the inter-provincial backbone level G.652 optical fiber accounts for more than 80%. China Mobile has been established for 20 years, among which the optical fibers of some provincial trunk lines have been existed for 15 years, and China Mobile is faced with the situation of upgrading and upgrading of optical fibers. Professor senior engineer of China Mobile Research Institute, pointed out that the bandwidth demand of China Mobile backbone network will still maintai
