1. A single-mode optical fiber, comprising:

  • a central core surrounded by an outer optical cladding;

    wherein, at a wavelength of 1310 nanometers, the optical fiber has a nominal mode field diameter (MFD) between 8.6 microns and 9.5 microns;

    wherein, at a wavelength of 1550 nanometers, the optical fiber has bending losses of 0.15 dB/turn or less for a radius of curvature of 5 millimeters; and

    wherein the optical fiber has a standard cable cut-off wavelength of 1260 nanometers or less.
