Solutions for 400 Gbit/s Inter Data Center WDM Transmission
arXiv:2009.11184
Abstract
We review some currently discussed solutions for 400 Gbit/s inter-data center WDM transmission for up to 100 km. We focus on direct detected solutions, namely PAM4 and DMT, and present two WDM systems based on these formats.
The results were obtained in the framework of the SASER-ADVAntage-NET and SpeeD projects, partly funded by the German ministry of education and research (BMBF) under contracts 16BP12400 and 13N13744, and by the European Commission in the Marie Curie project ABACUS
