Transmission of 81 channels at 40Gbit/s over a transpacific-distance erbium-only link, using PDM-BPSK modulation, coherent detection, and a new large effective area fibre.
21 September 2008
Eighty-one channels spaced by 50 GHz and modulated at 40 Gbit/s are transmitted over 11520 km, thanks to RZ PDM-BPSK modulation, coherent detection, and a new large effective area fibre.
