We demonstrate 3.08 Tb/s (77 x 42.7Gb/s) WDM transmission over 1200 km fiber with 100-km amplifier spacing and 100 GHz channel spacing. Error free transmission of all 77 channels is achieved. We employ dual C- and L-band hybrid Raman/Erbium-doped inline amplifiers, experimental low dispersion slope TrueWave® fiber, and Forward Error Correction to achieve this record capacity*distance product at 40-Gb/s.
