Which detrimental outcome affects optical fiber integrity when bends exceed limits?

💡 Explanation

Increased bending causes stress, thus affecting the material's isotropy; increased signal depolarization occurs because the stress-optic effect induces birefringence. Therefore polarization shifts randomly rather than preserving original states, unlike dispersion changes at specific wavelengths.
