Abstract
3.08Tbit/S (77 x 42.7 Gbit/s) WDM transmission over 1200 km fibre with 100 km amplifier spacing and 100 GHz channel spacing is demonstrated. Error-fre e transmission of all 77 channels is achieved by employing dual C- and L-ba nd hybrid Raman/erbium-doped inline amplifiers, experimental low dispersion slope TrueWave (R) fibre, and forward error correction.
