Abstract:
Demand for high per-fibre bandwidth is soaring in DCI applications where space is at a premium. Specifically designing a 12-core fibre to take advantage of lower crosstalk in the O-band, the BDFA fibre has enabled a 115.2-THz aggregate bandwidth whilst maintaining a 250-Μ m cladding diameter.
