Corning RC 1300 Specialty Fiber
This specialty fiber enables a wider range of system designs not possible with other standard specialty fibers because of its extremely tight fiber coiling and low bend loss. With a reduced cladding of 80 microns, Corning RC 1300 is the specialty fiber of choice for compact optical circuit designs.

Corning RC 1550 Specialty Fiber
Optimized for DWDM components, Corning RC 1550 specialty fiber is specifically indicated for devices requiring extremely tight bend radius coils. The reduced cladding allows extreme fiber coiling with low bend loss, providing world class reliability and greater flexibility in system design.

Corning RC Specialty Fibers
Manufactured with Corning’s patented outside vapor deposition process, and based on decades of experience in specialty fiber development, Corning RC Specialty Fibers set the industry standard for consistent geometric properties, high mechanical reliability and efficient splicing.

Corning PANDA PM High Numerical Aperture Specialty Fiber
Designed for demanding applications including fiber optic gyroscopes, probes, sensors and miniaturized components, Corning's high numerical aperture (NA) polarization maintaining fibers deliver extremely high birefringence, low insertion loss and excellent dimensional uniformity.
