  • Abstract
    Validation of novel splicing strategy enabling integration of hollow-core photonic band gap fiber with both itself and conventional SMF is presented. Self-splices are robust and low loss (0.16dB). Penalty-free 40Gbit/s data transmission is demonstrated in 1km arrangement of spliced HC-PBGF.
