568.8 Tb/s C+L-Band Transmission Over 5,166 km in a Standard-Cladding Diameter 19-Core Randomly-Coupled Multicore Fiber
We demonstrate C+L band recirculating transmission over 5166 km of 19-core randomly-coupled multicore fiber with standard cladding diameter. We achieve a total throughput of 568.8 Tb/s and report the highest capacity-distance product measured in any fiber of 2.93 Eb/s-km. ©2025 The Author(s)
