Undersea fiber optic networks past, present, and future.

Undersea fiber optic networks past, present, and future.

Undersea lightwave transmission systems have made tremendous progress in both capacity and network architecture since their introduction in the mid 1980s. Capacities have grown from 280 Mb/s in the first systems to 40 Gb/s or more for the fourth-generation systems being installed today using wavelen...
