EC 2000 describes recent developments in communication cables and optical fibre technology. Important topics covered are fibre designs and components for DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing), cables in the access network, optical fibre standardisation, measurements of fibres and cables in particular PMD (Pulse Mode Dispersion), smoke and fire performance of new materials, planning cabling infrastructure for large complexes, fibre cables and duct installation, and applying cable technology in difficult environments such as in the offshore and oil industries.
