6.4Tb/s (159×42.7Gb/s) Capacity Over 21×100 km Using Bandwidth-Limited Phase-Shaped Binary Transmission

Abstract

We demonstrate 6.4 Tb/s WDM transmission based on the phase-shaped binary transmission scheme and strong optical filtering over 2,100 km, yielding a record 13.3 Pbit/smiddotkm capacity times distance for terrestrial systems. A particularly good tolerance to non-linearities at 40 Gb/s has been measured
