Inputs

Outputs

This calculator determines the dispersion and bandwidth of a multimode fiber.

Example:

INPUTS:

  • Modal dispersion (ns/km) = 1
  • Fiber length (km) = 2
  • Chromatic dispersion (ns/km*nm) = 0.1
  • LED linewidth (nm) = 40

OUTPUTS:

  • Total dispersion = 8.24
  • Fiber Bandwidth = 42.44 MHz
