  • Abstract
    The feasibility of 40 Gbit/s aggregate bit rate transmission through 440 km standard fibre is experimentally demonstrated using a 25 nm-wide 16 wavelength multiplex and fluoride-based fibre amplifiers. This result corresponds to a potential bit rate-distance product of 17.6 Tbit/s.km through standard fibre.
