The first ultraviolet, non-solarizing (UVNS) silica/silica optical fibre, which features light guide bundles, has been launched by CeramOptec, based in Longmeadow, Massachusetts, USA. The light bundles are said to help produce a long-term performance optical fibre with 40 000 continuous, unfiltered hours of steady transmission at 95% of the original output.
