Congratulations Scala Data Centers, Lightera and Nokia on the successful AccuCore Hollow Core Fiber (HCF) test, which confirmed a latency reduction of approximately 32%, bringing data transmission closer to the speed of light. VIAVI is proud to contribute advanced optical testing and certification equipment. The OneAdvisor 800 Transport with 400G transport module tested latency with 10GE, 100GE and 400GE rates.

1w👍 A 32% reduction in latency time, verified using commercially available 400G high end measurement equipment such as those from VIAVI Solutions, adds significant weight to this test. As for the OTDR characterization of HCF fibers, it is somewhat specific (very low backscatter level, high reflective peaks at SMF/HCF hybrid connections), but it can work as Mario Simard (VIAVI) shows that this is possible with high-end OTDRs (see his HCF Technology overview webinar)
