Why the ‘Shannon Limit’ Is a Key Factor in New Cable PlanningDesign choices today define future upgrade capacity
System LengthBandwidth Repeater TOP Fiber Loss
More Bandwidth & SNR = More Future Upgrade Capability

Shannon’s Limit is “theory”…what about other real world limitations?
Nonlinear Impairments• Correctable with infinite DSP
Overhead for FEC & DSP• Shannon doesn’t include OH
Performance Margins• Shannon assumes no margin
Laser Aging & Drift• Shannon assumes Nyquist
