Web seminar explains WBMMF, the next generation of multimode fiber
July 28, 2015
Hosted by the TIA Fiber Optics Technology Consortium, the seminar on wideband multimode fiber will be delivered by TR-42.11 chair Paul Kolesar.
Paul Kolesar, CommScope engineering fellow and chair of TIA TR-42.11, will present the webinar "The Next Generation of Multimode Fiber: Wideband MMF" on Thursday, August 20.
On Thursday, August 20, the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) Fiber Optics Technology Consortium (FOTC) will host a 75-minute web seminar discussing wideband multimode fiber—WBMMF—which it characterizes as the next generation of multimode. Airing live beginning at 11:00am EDT, the seminar will be delivered by Paul Kolesar, engineering fellow with CommScope, who chairs the TIA’s TR-42.11 Committee, which is developing the performance specifications for WBMMF.
“Learn all about WBMMF, the next generation of multimode fiber, and its applications,” the FOTC said when announcing the seminar. It added that the seminar will address the following.
Application drivers
Multiplexing technology
Trends in wave-division multiplexing
Trends in parallel fiber transmission
Trends in short-wavelength WDM (SWDM)
SWDM analysis
Benefits of SWDM and WBMMF
Cabling evolution roadmap
WBMMF specification requirements
Bandwidth performance data
Transmission performance at 100 meters
Transmission test configuration
Attendees of the seminar will be eligible to receive 1 continuing education credit (CEC) toward BICSI’s ICT professional credentials.
