Abstract
2-core fibre for submarine cable is becoming the first commercial application of multi-core fibre, which should enable to expand the capacity beyond the current limitation of submarine cable size. For successful commercial applications of 2-core fibre, it is important to minimise the complexities in manufacturing, splicing, and fibre handling. The 2-core fibre design for minimum complexity is reviewed.
