Hollow core fibers: key properties, technology status and telecommunication opportunities
Hollow core fibers: key properties, technology status and telecommunication opportunities
Some Key Telecom Challenges
• Unrelenting demands for increasing internet traffic, growing at 40-50% p.a.
• Ever increasing energy demands, need to be greener
• Continuous need to reduce cost-per-bit (OPEX + CAPEX)
• Increasing criticality of latency – ultimately driven by application
requirements but also a constraint on physical network configuration
• Increasing concerns over network resilience and security
All of this in the face of progressive challenges in the saturation in the
performance of standard single mode fibres operating in the C-band

• Increasing criticality of latency – ultimately driven by application

• Increasing concerns over network resilience and security
All of this in the face of progressive challenges in the saturation in the
