Bend the rules.
The world of fiber optics just turned a major corner. Historically, optical fiber was known to suffer from signal loss when bent tightly. That hurdle is history. Working with telecom industry visionaries and leveraging 30 years of interactions with technical field personnel at service providers around the world, Corning has developed the ClearCurve® optical fiber family.
