The purpose behind this research is realized in the creation of reliability design diagrams and allowable stress rules to guide use of optical fiber both in communications systems and photonic devices. While investigations refining our basic knowledge of optical fiber fracture will likely continue for many years, the knowledge gained since 1986 coupled with well-controlled manufacturing and installation processes have resulted in a communication network that has proven extremely reliable.
