We demonstrate simultaneous transmission of 1-W electrical power and 10.3-Gbit/s bi-directional data over a 14-km-long 4-core single-mode fiber with a 125-μm cladding diameter. We experimentally clarify the influence of absorption induced by stimulated Raman scattering from a 1550-nm band feed light on the 1310-nm band signal light.
