The first part of this paper gives a brief introduction of modern optical transmission fiber technology. The second part of this paper illustrates detailed numerical analysis, lab tests, and field trials of MCI's next-generation fiber development process from 2000 to 2005. The new Medium Dispersion Fiber (MDF) has dispersion of around 7~8 ps/nm/km at 1550nm, and a relatively low dispersion slope in the S-C-L band, which will satisfy MCI next-generation transmission fiber technical specifications and requirements at 20 Pb/s*km for "short fat" (20 Tb/s x 1000 km) and "long thin" (6.67 Tb/s x 3000 km) future DWDM, Metro, Regional, and ULH network application and deployment. The development and deployment of this extremely high-optical performance fiber will help the telecommunications industry to introduce new applications and keep MCI at the forefront of optical transmission technology around the world.
