Optical fibres, cables and systems (ITU-T Manual 2009)

Abstract

The manual is intended as a guide for technologists, middle-level management, as well as regulators, to assist in the practical installation of optical fibre-based systems. Throughout the discussions on the practical issues associated with the application of this technology, the explanations focus on how ITU-T Recommendations address them. It provides the organized insights of those who have created and lived with the evolution of the technology for several decades.
