Telecommunications Industry Association Issues Call for Interest: "FOTP-122 Polarization Mode Dispersion Measurement for Single Mode Optical Fibers by Stokes Parameter Evaluation"
Stakeholders Invited to Contact TIA Regarding Participation
Arlington Va. – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-42.12 Engineering Committee on Optical Fibers and Cables has issued a call for interest for document TIA-455-122-A initially titled "FOTP-122 Polarization Mode Dispersion Measurement for Single Mode Optical Fibers by Stokes Parameter Evaluation".
TR-42.12 has developed guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: "This test method describes a procedure for measuring the polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) of single-mode optical fibers. The measurement result is obtained from a single series of Stokes parameter measurements performed at intervals across a wavelength range. It can be applied to both short and long fibers, regardless of the degree of polarization mode coupling."
The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: Telecom, Optical Fiber Manufacturers, Developers and Users
TIA is actively seeking participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities.
To inquire about participating in TIA standards developing efforts, please contact the TIA Technology & Standards Department at 703-907-7000 or via e-mail at standards@tiaonline.org.
A major function of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) is the writing and maintenance of voluntary industry standards and specifications. These activities are carried out by the volunteer members of TIA engineering committees. On the public engineering committee pages (http://www.tiaonline.org/standards/committees/ ), users will find recent meeting reports, agendas and notices for upcoming meetings, as well as links to some of the most popular standards from each committee.

We hope that China will use this break in the negotiations to reexamine its approach to the negotiations to expand the ITA and focus on reducing its overly large list of sensitive products. If China is ready to move forward to conclude the expansion of the ITA this year then the ITA Expansion is achievable this year.

As part of a large U.S. industry delegation representing a broad array of ICT manufacturers, TIA is in Geneva, Switzerland this week to cheer on the trade negotiators who are working hard to conclude the negotiations to expand the product coverage of the WTO’s Information Technology Agreement (ITA). The ITA remains one of the most commercially important WTO trade agreements – by eliminating tariffs on a broad range of ICT products, the ITA lowers the cost and improves access to these products, which are vital to the economic competitiveness of all economies around the world.

The Telecommunications Industry Association was in Geneva last week along with AdvaMed, the Consumer Electronics Association, the Entertainment Software Association, the Information Technology Industry Council, the Liquid Crystal Polymer Coalition, the Motion Picture Association of America, and the Semiconductor Industry Association. This coalition of high-tech companies represents a broad spectrum of manufacturers and service providers in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector.

Last week was a busy one at the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Geneva, Switzerland. The signs are very encouraging that the member countries of the WTO are back on track to move the WTO’s trade liberalization agenda forward – from the new International Services Agreement (ISA) to the ongoing negotiations to expand the existing WTO Information Technology Agreement (ITA).
