Researchers Transmit Optical Data At 16.4 Tbps

Researchers at Bell Labs in France, in conjunction with Alcatel and Kylia Optical Solutions, have set a record by successful transmitting 16.4 Tbps of optical data over 2,550km.

In papers presented at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition/National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC), Alcatel-Lucent researchers disclosed research that they believe will likely pave the way to successful implementation of the very high speed transmissions.
