20 Gbit/s data transmission over 2 km multimode fibre using 850 nm mode filter VCSEL

Journal article, 2014

Error-free data transmission over 1.3 and 2 km multimode fibre at 25 and 20 Gbit/s, respectively, is demonstrated using a high-speed, single-mode, 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) with an integrated mode filter. This result represents a bitrate-distance product of 40 Gbit/s km, a new record for multimode fibre VCSELbased interconnects.
