Patent ID: 11880064

Abstract:
An optical fiber includes: a core made of silica based glass; a cladding made of silica based glass, the cladding having a refractive index that is lower than a maximum refractive index of the core; and a coating including a primary coating layer, and a secondary coating layer. An outer diameter of the cladding is less than 100 μm. A thickness of the primary coating layer is larger than or equal to 15 μm. A mode field diameter at a wavelength of 1310 nm is larger than or equal to 8.6 μm and smaller than or equal to 9.2 μm. An effective cutoff wavelength is smaller than or equal to 1260 μm. A bending loss at a wavelength of 1550 nm when bending is made at a diameter of 60 mm is smaller than or equal to 0.1 dB/100 turn.
