Which condition would cause signal fading in intercontinental submarine fiber optic cables?

💡 Explanation

Signal fading occurs because birefringence in the fiber causes polarisation mode dispersion; it's nonlinear because higher intensities create Kerr effect; this varies arrival times. Therefore dispersion causes frequency selective fading, rather than absorption from impurities or scattering.
