Are Optical Cable Corporations fiber optic cables tested to specified standards of performance established by Bell Company Research (Bellcore) which is now Telcordia?
A. Yes. Bellcore was established and charged with the mission of providing research and development and establishing minimum standards for the Bell Telephone Company’s infrastructure. It is specifically the research arm of the public telephone system in the United States. Bellcore has been changed to Telcordia™ Technologies. Telcordia™ does not establish the test procedures for these standards. The test procedures are provided by the TIA/EIA, specifically in the TIA/EIA 455 series of tests.
