Abstract
It is proposed a home optical data network formed of an optical fiber comprising an optical core and an optical cladding surrounding the optical core, the optical core having a refractive graded-index profile with a minimal refractive index nand a maximal refractive index n, said optical fiber being such that it has a numerical aperture NA and an optical core radius a satisfying a criterion C of quality of optical communications defined by the following equation: Δ is the normalized refractive index difference,and in that said minimal and maximal refractive indexes n, nand said optical core radius a are chosen such that NA>0.20, a>10 μm and |C|<0.20.
