This paper reports on the general architecture for a sliceable bandwidth variable
transponder as discussed within the IDEALIST European project. Support for super …

First we discuss market opportunities for 40 Gb/s systems. Next we discuss practical
requirements that 40 Gb/s systems must meet to become commercially deployed. Finally, we …

We quantify spectrum usage and transponder cost when deploying next-generation
transponders that support up to 1.6 Tbit/s, in both C-and C+ L bands. We compare two …
