NEC Sets High-Density DWDM Transmission Capacity Record

fiberopticsonline.com

10/3/2000 NEC Corp (Herndon, Virginia) set what it believes to be a new industry record in high-density DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) capacity transmission -- successfully transmitting 6.4Tb/s (40Gb/S - 160CH) over a single 186km fiber.

This is nearly twice the 3.28Tb/s transmission capacity that was previously considered by NEC to be the maximum capacity. The record-setting optical-transmission test transmitted the data equivalent of 1 million motion pictures over a single fiber at one time.

NEC announced the test results Sept. 7 at the European Community Optical Communication Conference (ECOC) in Munich, Germany.
