The PMD link design value is a term used to describe the PMD of concatenated lengths of fiber (also known as PMD Q). This value represents a statistical upper limit for total link PMD. Individual PMD values may change when cabled. Corning s fiber specification supports network design requirements for a 0.5 ps/ km maximum PMD. Page 4 of 5
