What happened: Hawaiki sets 1.2 Tb/s record over 4,300 km with Ciena’s WaveLogic 6
BW Digital has achieved a data transmission speed of 1.2 terabits per second (Tb/s) per wavelength over a 4,300 km segment of the Hawaiki Transpacific Cable system. This milestone was accomplished using Ciena’s WaveLogic 6 Extreme (WL6e) coherent optical technology, deployed on the Waveserver platform and supported by Ciena’s Reconfigurable Line System (RLS). The trial marks a significant advancement in long-haul submarine network capabilities.
The Hawaiki cable, operational since 2018, spans 15,000 km, connecting Australia, New Zealand, American Samoa, Hawaii, and the U.S. west coast. This recent trial demonstrates the potential for increased capacity and efficiency in existing submarine infrastructure.
