The specification describes an improved optical fiber produced by a hybrid VAD/MCVD process. The core of the fiber is produced using VAD and the inner cladding layer has a depressed index and is produced using MCVD. In preferred embodiments, the optical power envelope is essentially entirely contained in VAD produced core material and the MCVD produced depressed index cladding material. Optical loss is minimized by confining most of the optical power to the VAD core where OH presence is low, as well as by maximizing the optical power in the un-doped silica region. The MCVD substrate tube material is essentially devoid of optical power.

In an antenna device, first linear portions of a coil conductor are located on a lower surface of a first resin sheet. Second linear portions of the coil conductor are located on an upper surface of a second resin sheet. Via conductors of the coil conductor are formed in the first and second resin sheets and intermediate resin sheets located between the first and second resin sheets. The via conductors connect a first end and a second end of the first linear portions and a first end and a second end of the second linear portions, respectively. The first and second linear portions and the via conductors define the coil conductor. Each of the intermediate resin sheets includes an aperture in the center portion thereof. The lamination of the apertures defines a cavity in which a magnetic substance core is embedded. The coil conductor is wound around a periphery of the cavity.

An extension housing (C) for a cable TV multi-tap device is made up of extension tubes (A) in coaxially aligned relation to one another for the purpose of providing wider bandwidth subscriber multi-taps with a longer extension coaxial connector to span the distance between a TV coaxial cable ends without affecting performance. An RF signal connector (H) is inserted in each tube having a dielectric insulator (D) at one end, an elongated conductor (15) having a bore (17) extending through its greater length and longitudinally split segments (14) surrounding the bore for insertion of a conductor pin (10) extending from a cable connector at the end of the extension tube and inserted through the dialectric insulator into the bore and a second conductor pin (16) extending from the elongated conductor into contact with a face plate connector (G) in the housing. In one form of invention the second conductor pin extends through a second dielectric insulator (E) into contact with the face place connector. In another form of invention, a printed circuit board (50) is interposed between the second conductor pin (10') and the connector (H') to establish a predetermined impedance in the RF signal connector.

A receiver optical amplifier assembly (ROSA) is disclosed that provides for greater tolerances in alignment. The ROSA includes a multimode fiber stub to receive a light beam from a single mode optical fiber. The light beam from the multimode fiber stub is focused by a lens system onto the active area of an optical detector chip. The multimode fiber stub acts as a GRIN lens and allows for optimization of the spot size on the active area. Additionally, in some embodiments the return loss characteristics of the ROSA can be greatly improved by including an angled surface on the multimode fiber stub and moving the active area of the optical detector chip off-axis to compensate.
