At this week’s ECOC 2016 conference, we were pleased to present the results of a leading-edge WDM field trial conducted in collaboration with Telecom Italia, as well as the Technical University of Munich, and the Technical University of Eindhoven. This field trial was implemented over a Telecom Italia EDFA-only legacy link (612 kilometers) with 0.3 dB/km average fiber attenuation, and featured single carrier 200G WDM DP-4QAM, DP-8QAM and DP-16QAM successfully transmitted with system OSNR margin of 4.1dB, 4.3dB, and 2.6dB respectively at the relative FEC thresholds.
The successful field trial showcased best-in-class coherent optical transmission and cutting-edge technology innovation, including Coriant CloudWave™ Optics, a key photonic layer technology that combines a leading signal processing engine, advanced integrated photonics, and software programmable line side modulation to bring a new level of optical performance, efficiency, and scalability to infrastructure networks.
