CasaLight™ Fibre
Introduction
CasaLight™ is fully compliant with ITU-T G.657 class A, the new international
recommendation defining tougher performance requirements for optical fibres in today’s Optical
Access Networks. Its optimized design allows CasaLight™ to exhibit excellent macrobending
performance even when used under extreme conditions.
Neon™ Plus Coating
CasaLight™ is available with Neon™ Plus, the latest generation of coatings,
based on the highly acclaimed Neon™ coating used by Prysmian worldwide for more than 10 years. This
Neon coating system adopted by CasaLight™ (and by all other fibres manufactured by Prysmian)
additionally provides enhanced resistance to ‘high power’ effects which can result in coating burns
and glass fusion in certain amplified systems under severe bend conditions.
Compatibility
CasaLight™ is also in compliance with ITU-T Recommendation G.652 and has
satisfied all IEC testing requirements for transmission, mechanical and environmental performance.
CasaLight™ has optimal spliceability with G.652 fibres thanks to its very similar chemical
composition and to its best-in-class geometrical parameters. This makes CasaLight™ a fibre truly
compatible both with other fibre types and with optical systems employed globally.
