We demonstrate for the first time the coexistence of a quantum-channel and 8×200 Gpbs 16-QAM optical channels with launching powers as high as -9dBm per channel in a 2 km HC-NANF. Comparative analysis with single-mode fibre reveals that the quantum channel could not be sustained at such power levels.
