High-power optical multimode fibers are essential components for materials processing and surgery and can limit the reliability of expensive systems due to breakdown at the end faces. The breakdown threshold of fibres is determined by intrinsic materials properties and parameters of the technology applied. The aim of this paper is the identification of technological parameters that are crucial for fiber quality.
