Abstract
A fiber optic jumper assembly comprising at least one bend performance optical fiber comprising a core region and a cladding region surrounding the core region, the cladding region comprising an annular hole-containing region comprised of non-periodically disposed holes, a protective covering positioned over the at least one bend performance optical fiber, and at least one connector mounted upon each end of the at least one bend performance optical fiber. A preconnectorized fiber optic jumper assembly comprising a microstructured fiber having a delta attenuation of 0.00 dB at 5 wraps about a 6 mm diameter at a reference wavelength of 1625 nm.
