Contribution
First demonstration of SCL-band transmission over G.654.E fibre with high data rates over long distances, highlighting its viability for practical deployment.
Findings
Achieved 100.8 Tb/s over 1552 km
Comparable information rate to G.652.D links with distributed Raman amplification
Confirmed ultra-low loss and nonlinearity benefits of G.654.E fibre
Abstract
We demonstrate the first SCL-band long-haul transmission using G.654.E-compliant fibre, achieving 100.8 Tb/s (GMI) over 1552 km, despite its 1520 nm cutoff wavelength. Due to the fibre's ultra-low loss and low nonlinearity, the achievable-information-rate with lumped amplification is comparable to that of G.652.D-compliant fibre links with distributed-Raman-amplification.
