Alliance of Leaders in Russia: 米兰ac体育 and OFS Demonstrate Successful Error-free 40Gb/s Transmission Over 2000km in 3.2Tb/s DWDM System

Moscow, Russia - OFS, a leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of innovative fiber optic network products, and 米兰ac体育, a leading Russian designer, manufacturer and supplier of DWDM transmission equipment announce a new record in error-free 40G multi-channel transmission over 2000km of OFS optical fiber. The demonstration is enabled by transmission equipment “PUSK,” developed by 米兰ac体育 / NTO “IRE-Polus,” and OFS AllWave® ZWP optical fiber /RightWave™ LL MicroDK dispersion compensating modules.

“Bandwidth demand in the Russian/CIS telecommunications market today is growing fast, and a number of terrestrial optical communication lines have to be upgraded or built, increasing the demand we see for 40Gb/s and 100Gb/s DWDM digital channels,” noted Vladimr Treschikov, General Director of 米兰ac体育. “As networks become more complex and support higher data rates, they demand ultra-high technical performance from both the active equipment and fiber optic cables. The best technical results in optical communication can only be achieved by using the finest technical solutions, up-to date equipment and the best available transmission media. Consequently, we had the idea of joining the efforts of two technology leaders- the Russian leader in transmission equipment -米兰ac体育 and a worldwide leader in optical fiber innovation and manufacturing - OFS.”

“This is just the first step we have made here with 米兰ac体育 and this transmission accomplishment,” said Michael Pavlychev, the General Director of OFS office in Russia. “The result has shown the possibility of going even further: to transmit channels up to the distance of the order of 10,000km with OFS fibers and dispersion compensation, as well the latest technologies in optical signal transmission, amplification, processing and decoding.”
