Ericsson, Telstra tested 40Gbps optical fiber network

Ericsson and Telstra announced that they have successfully tested the next generation fiber optic network technology with connection speeds of up to 40Gbps.

The goal of the above test is to test the new technology to test the ability of Telstra's 10Gbps Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) network. The results confirmed that Telstra's existing network can completely upgrade to 40Gbps.

Telstra's managing director of technology and network Dan Burns said the experiment was a step in the plan to develop new network technologies to meet the pace of urban network development.

The test was conducted directly on a 1.121km 10Gbps network along the Australian coast and 1,244km of fiber optic cable connecting Sydney and Melbourne of existing Telstra.

Executive Director Ericsson Australia and New Zealand Bill Zikou said 10Gbps fiber optic systems used in the test were not modified by any factor. Network speeds are boosted by Ericsson's new technology.

" The Marconi MHL 3000 solution can help customers upgrade their service to a higher speed but not a big investment. In other words, customers do not have to invest in changing the fiber optic infrastructure system. Show yourself ".
