In addition, it is also widely used in metropolitan area networks, long-distance, ultra-long-distance and submarine optical cable systems. Especially in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, C-band (1530nm~1565nm) shows the lowest loss in the industry. One of the mainstream choices.
Comparison with other bands: Compared with the 850nm and 1310nm bands, the fiber loss in the 1550nm band is lower. The loss of 850nm is as high as 2.5dB/km, while the loss of 1310nm is about 0.4dB/km. Therefore, in applications requiring long-distance transmission, the 1550nm band is more popular. At the same time, the human eye safety of the 1550nm band also makes it widely used in radar, sensors, communications, biomedical and other fields.
