Los Angeles, United States, March 23, 2017: Huawei Marine presented a live demonstration of its ultra-long unrepeatered system at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exhibition (OFC) in Los Angeles.
OFC is the largest global conference and exhibition for optical communications and is being held at the Los Angeles Convention Center from March 19th to 23rd .
In September 2016, Huawei Marine announced that it had achieved a breakthrough in unrepeatered systems with a transmission distance of up to 648.9 km. Based on Huawei’s advanced 100G technology, enhanced raman amplifier (ERPC) and remote optical pump amplifier (ROPA), the ultra-long unrepeatered system increases transmission distance by up to 10%.
At OFC, Huawei Marine built a replica of its lab environment in Beijing so it could present the demonstration. By observing the signal spectrum on the receiver side and signal power evolution along the span, the system showed its high reliability and transmission capabilities during the demonstration.
Ma Liping, Senior Optical Transmission Engineer at Huawei Marine who is in charge of system research, said, “The ultra-long unrepeatered system is quite complicated. When it is applied commercially, I believe it will greatly benefit network operators by providing a cost-effective unrepeatered system solutions over greater distances. We continue to lead the industry in our technology and solutions.”
Huawei Marine is presenting the live demonstration of its ultra-long unrepeatered system from March 21st to 23rd at OFC booth #1513.
