Abstract :
Higher line rates in long haul systems is a trend that is expected to continue. Today we see the deployment of 40 Gb/s and the development of 100 Gb/s systems require higher optical signal to noise ratios. This trend puts more emphasis on the development of fibers with low attenuation and large effective area.
