Compared to G.652 fiber, the use of G.654.E fiber will increase the cost of fiber optic cable as it is more expensive. However, this cost is slight compared to deploying G.652 fiber for high rate optical network systems. This is because the use of G.652 fiber cables will incur much more quantities and cost on optical relay nodes as G.652 fiber has much shorter unrepeatered transmission distance. While G.654.E fiber with longer transmission distance can reduce the total number and cost of optical relay nodes and systems in the high speed long-haul networks.
