Abstract
KRISS, NMC, NMIJ, LNE, NMISA, METAS, VNIIOFI, NIS, and CENAM conducted a supplementary comparison on optical fiber length at 1310 nm, 1550 nm, and 1625 nm. The aim of this comparison is to examine the equivalence of the optical fiber length among participating laboratories and to provide supporting evidence for associated CMC claims in BIPM KCDB.
