Corning® LEAF® optical fiber is the world’s most widely deployed non-zero dispersion shifted fiber. Across six continents, we’ve sold over 30 million kilometers of this advanced, high-performance fiber. A backbone by LEAF® fiber provides network capacity and flexibility enabling future growth and compatibility with emerging network technologies. With its moderate dispersion and large effective area, LEAF fiber continues to be the fiber of choice for today’s high-data-rate and tomorrow’s all-optical long-haul and metropolitan networks.
