Can't find any statement whether the nifty proclaimed 400G wavelength is indeed a single 100GHz channel or just a bundled supper channel
The only hint is the total capacity of a fiber of 17.6 Tbps with 44 wavelengths which is roughly the whole 100GHz spaced grid

Well, if you click through to his earlier piece, at

http://newswire.telecomramblings.com/2013/02/france-telecom-orange-and-alcatel-lucent-deploy-worlds-first-live-400-gbps-per-wavelength-optical-link/

he does explicitly say "400Gb/s per wavelength"...
