We demonstrate for the first time 10Gb/s error-free transmission through two differently micro-structured-multimode polymer fibers. Results show excellent transmission characteristics for these fibers and demonstrate that micro-structuring can significantly improve the bandwidth of multimode-polymer fibers.
