Dear Mr. Russell:
We are pleased to inform you that your firm is certified as a Small Disadvantaged
Business (SDB) under U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) guidelines. You are
now eligible to participate in the SDB Program. Certification is valid for three years
from the date of this letter. Your firm will be added to SBA's list of certified SDBs
found in PRO -Net, SBA's on-line registry, at http://pro-net.sba.gov.
The SDB Program regulations in Title 13 of the Code of Federal Regulations,
Section 124,1016(b), require that during your three-year term you report within 10 days
any changes in ownership and control or any other circumstances which could adversely
affect the eligibility of your firm as an SDB. Failure to do this could result in the
decertification of your firm. Please note also that in order for your firm to continue to
participate as an SDB after its three-year term, you must reapply for the SDB Program.
wish you much success in your future business endeavors.

ISO 9001 Registered
Corning' SMF-28e' Optical Fiber
Evolving Networks Now
Corning® SMF-28c" single -mode optical fiber
continues Comings long history of fiber innova-
tion and outstanding product performance.
SMF-28e fiber is Coming's premier standard
single -mode fiber that meets the communications
industry's most stringent requirements. Corning
enhanced the product attributes beyond the
requirements of ITU G.652.0 to offer customers
the most comprehensive specifications of any
standard single -mode fiber.
SMF-28e fiber is optimized for metropolitan and
access networks that support all broadband appli-
cations, fiber to the residential building, interoffice
transport and dedicated business access. SMF-28e
has been widely deployed in a variety of communi-
cations networks worldwide proving its perform-
ance capability in diverse transmission applications.
Building on a Solid Foundation
Corning SMF-28® fiber, the long-standing indus-
try benchmark for quality and performance, was
the foundation for the development of SMF-28c
fiber with enhanced product capability and speci-
fications. SMF-28e fiber has the same reliability,
splicing performance and easily strippable coating
that customers trust in SMF-28 fiber and it is
fully compatible and inter -operable with legacy
standard single -mode networks.
Corning used its 30 years of optical fiber experi-
ence to evolve standard single -mode fiber to mccc
and exceed the. highest industry standards. In
addition to the specified 1383 not and 1625 run
attenuation values and macrobend loss required
of ITU G.652.0 fiber, SMF-28e fiber also
provides customers with an excellent combinat (jr
of optical, env ronmental, dimensional and
mechanical specifications.
Confidence far 7ird v and the Future
Corning SMF-28e fiber is the ideal fiber choice
for rapidly growing and dynamically changing
metropolitan and access networks. SMF-28e
fiber's world -class geometry, superior coating and
leading bending specifications provide immediate
value in these environments where the demands of
numerous splices and equipment connections
require the consistent, precisely manufactured
products on which Corning has built and earned
its reputation.
Low attenuation throughout the 1285 nm to
1625 nm wavelength range and comprehensive
environmental specifications enable full -spectrum
capability. SMF-28e fiber enables flexible network
designs such that customers can be confident that
they will be able to evolve their metropolitan and
access networks to the current and emerging
wavelength division multiplexing systems increas-
ingly being used for high -bandwidth, multiple
services or multi -protocol applications. Full -spec-
trum capability also prepares network infrastruc-
tures for the competing and maturning architec-
tures of broadband services, including fiber to the
home, fiber to the curb, digital subscriber lines,
and hybrid fiber coax. And, with comprehensive
PMD specifications, SMF-28e fiber is also suit-
able a variety of other transmission applications.
Protection and Versatility
Corning fiber is protected for long-term perform-
ance and reliability by the CPC® coating system.
Corning's enhanced, dual acrylate CPC coatings
provide excellent fiber protection and are easy to
work with. CPC coatings are designed to be
mechanically stripped and have an outside diame-
ter of 245 pm. CPC coatings are optimized for use
in many single- and multi -fiber cable designs,
including loose tube, ribbon, slotted core and
tight buffer cables.
Patented Quality Process
All Corning optical fibers are manufactured
using the outside vapor deposition (OVD)
process, which produces a totally synthetic,
ultra -pure fiber. As a result, Corning fibers
have consistent geometry properties, high
strength and low attenuation.
