Abstract
Trends on optical fibre technologies look very promising in terms of monetary market and technical advances. The maturing of the present and foreseen potential will rely on an adequate response in optical fibre measurements, metrology, standards and instrumentation. Key aspects of this evolutionary cycle, in which an important share of the investment goes in metrological activity are described stressing the exigencies brought by exploiting technical breakthroughs.
