Abstract
Interchannel skew in graded index multimode fibre-optic ribbon can be reduced by forming each channel from fibre sequentially cut from the s ame pull. A 1.25 ps/m maximum variation in optical pulse delay has bee n measured across a 102 m long 12 fibre ribbon. These improvements ext end the applications of multimode ribbon fibre to include low cost syn chronous parallel transmission at 622 Mbyte/s over distances greater t han 1 km.
