The field trials saw 2.5 times more capacity than the traditional optical transmission technology.

The multiple field trials were conducted over a 5,500-kilometer (3,418-mile) submarine cable between New York and Ireland.

However, the tests increased capacity from 13 to over 17 Tb/s using commercially available hardware.

Nokia and Facebook conduct submarine field trials and set transatlantic efficiency record

We are thrilled to partner with Facebook to promote our common commitment to accelerating innovation in optical transmission.
