On September 6, the 19th China International Optoelectronic Exposition is held at Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center. As the world's largest supplier of fibre preform, optical fibre and cable, Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (stock code: 6869.HK referred to as 'YOFC') has participated in the Expo with a full range of specialty fibre products, cable products, active optical cable series products, data center solutions and fibre bragg grating series products and solutions. At the same time, the YOFC e-commerce introduction and marketing event and product launch event for new specialty optical fibres are held. After the opening of the Expo, all kinds of customers come to visit and negotiate at YOFC booth, creating a bustling scene.

Popular New Specialty Optical Fibre

At the Expo site, YOFC new product launch event is one of the most crowded scenes, where all kinds of customers have gathered to spare no seat. The new products include polarization-maintaining optical fibre (with thin diameter or for device), single-mode fibre series for device, coupling fibre series (thin diameter), Yb-doped fibre for fibre laser, spin fibre, long distance DTS system and C-band optimized fibre and low-mode fibre.

At this Expo,YOFC focuses on the introduction of high-power active cable for fibre laser, polarization-maintaining fibre for device, anti-bending single-mode fibre for hydrophone or passive device and so on, more than 10 kinds in total. They highlight to customers YOFC’s capability to address key issues in practical application scenes (see the appendix for some new product introductions).

Data Center Solutions

YOFC carries iCONEC®PVMax intelligent cabling system, data center solution, SWDM broadband multi-mode OM5 optical fibre and G4 hierarchical optical fibre distribution frame products to attend the exhibition. The products are characterized by high bandwidth, high density,high reliability and high expansibility etc.

YOFC Maxband OM5 bend insensitive multi-mode fibre is specialtyly designed for short wave length division multiplexing (SWDM) applications. Unlike traditional OM4 fibre with high bandwidth performance in only 850nm, YOFC Maxband OM5 bend insensitive multi-mode fibre has high bandwidth in 850-950nm. It offers optical fibre solutions for 100Gb/s and 400Gb/s multiple wavelength large capacity data systems in the future.

Remarkable Active Optical Cable Products

YOFC FIBBR® active optical cable series is a new consumer solution of high-speed electronic interface transmission with fibre instead of traditional copper wire as the core material. The series mainly include USB, HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort, etc.Its applications include data center, cloud computing system, machine vision,remote education, security monitoring, medical treatment, home theater and soon. Through independent research and development and on the basic of continuous innovation, YOFC FIBBR® active optical cable products have continued to upgrade in recent years, and among those products, the HDMI products have acquired professional certification ISF after strict tests, becoming the first ISF certified HDMI optical fibre brand in the world.

YOFC E-Commerce

Introduced for the First Time

From the manufacturing industry YOFC turns to the Internet.YOFC has integrated the operation of online and offline resources with the 'traditional manufacturing' + 'Internet' model, and linked the upstream and downstream of the industry through the B2B model that allows distributors and manufacturers to achieve transactions. Furthermore, YOF Cexplores platform users’ in-depth demands in order to better serve customers.At present, YOFC e-commerce has developed 'YOFC mall', 'OrderingSystem', 'Operating Platform' and other systems, which are operating well and have held online marketing activities praised by customers.

Introduction of Part of New Products

1.20/400double-clad high-powerYb-dopedactive fibrefor fibre laser

YOFC 20/400 double-clad is a key product of Yb-doped active fibre launched by YOFC technical team after several years of research and development. The product meets demands of fibre laser system with power level of 500-1500 watts, which has strict requirements for 20/400 in respect of photon darkening, high power impact resistance, high nonlinear threshold,light-dark of red light and other performances.

2.Specialty single-mode fibre for device

Specialty singe-mode fibre for device is a single-mode fibre widely and mainly used in fibre coupler, isolator, circulator, patch cord and other passive device. Based on advantages brought by PCVD technology and accurate deposition, YOFC specialty single-mode fibre, in recent years, has reached peer-level excellence and commercial scale of mass production, after joint improvement and long-term reliability verification of YOFC with terminal customers.

3.Spun fibre for FOCT

Spun fibre spuns periodically.Because of its high round birefringence and strong anti-interference, it has become the ideal material for sensing fibre ring with current transformer.

4.Single-mode and multi-mode fibre for DTS sensor

At present, DTS system has a general key problem in degraded spatial resolution, limited temperature range, poor high temperature resistance, anti-hydrogen loss and other aspects in long-distance transmission. In response to the problem,YOFC has introduced single-mode and multimode fibre to extend DTS temperature measurement range and optimize C-band attenuation bandwidth.
