DCI Field Trial demonstrating 1.3-Tb/s Single-Channel and 50.8-Tb/s WDM Transmission Capacity

We demonstrate, to the best of our knowledge, the highest reported single- and multi-channel capacities over a field-deployed data center interconnection (DCI) system operating over 93 km of standard single-mode fiber using only Erbium-doped fiber amplification. Using off-the-shelf hardware components, and in particular using only a single digital-to-analog converter per complex signal dimension, ...
