STL CTO says hollow core fiber's challenge is scale, not physics
Original: STL CTO: Hollow core fiber’s next big hurdle isn’t physics – It’s scale
STL's chief technology officer argues that hollow core optical fiber has moved past its fundamental physics problems and now faces its biggest obstacle in manufacturing at scale. Writing for Fierce Network, the executive says making the specialty fiber in volume and at low enough cost, rather than resolving technical performance questions, is what will determine whether it sees broad adoption in telecom networks.
Why now: Hollow core fiber is attracting attention as operators look to next-generation network technologies, prompting debate over its commercial readiness.
