Fiber-optic undersea two cable optical and environmental tests
Abstract
Tests of two fiber-optic cables revealed that fibers for communication purposes can be incorporated into two cables with very little excess loss during manufacture. Further development in cable design and fiber buffers is required to eliminate excess loss when cables are subjected to tension, temperature, and pressure.
