Single wavelength channel 10.2 Tb/s TDM-data capacity using 16-QAM and coherent detection

We present a serial 10.2-Tb/s transmission-system using a 1.28-TBd RZ-16-QAM signal, polarization multiplexing and ultra-fast coherent demultiplexing. Considering FEC-overhead, we achieve a record error-free net data rate of 9.5-Tb/s and transmission over 29-km.
