Consider a step index multimode fiber with a core diameter of (9.0000x10^1) (µm), a core refractive index of (1.48000x10^0) and a cladding refractive index of (1.38000x10^0). Suppose that we use a laser diode emitter at a wavelength of (1.570x10^0) (µm) and a spectral FWHM linewidth of (2.00000x10^0) (nm) to transmit a rectangular profile pulse along this fiber. Calculate the bit-rate × distance product, BL, of this fiber in units of (bits-km/s). Assume the intermodal dispersion dominates over any other dispersion for this fiber. Give your answer to 4 significant digits.

Question
Consider a step index multimode fiber with a core diameter of (9.0000x10^1) (µm), a core
refractive index of (1.48000x10^0) and a cladding refractive index of (1.38000x10^0).
Suppose that we use a laser diode emitter at a wavelength of (1.570x10^0) (um) and a
spectral FWHM linewidth of (2.00000x10^0) (nm) to transmit a rectangular profile pulse
along this fiber. Calculate the bit-rate × distance product, BL, of this fiber in units of
(bits km/s). Assume the intermodal dispersion dominates over any other dispersion for this
fiber. Give your answer to 4 significant digits.
Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
