Disclosed is a multi-core optical fiber having a plurality of cores extending parallelly along a central axis of the multi-core optical fiber. Each core of the plurality of cores is up-doped with an up-dopant. The multi-core optical fiber further has a plurality of buffer layers such that each buffer layer of the plurality of buffer layers envelop a corresponding core of the plurality of cores. Each buffer layer of the plurality of buffer layers has a predefined buffer layer thickness. The multi-core optical fiber further has a plurality of trench layers such that each trench layer of the plurality of trench layers envelops a corresponding buffer layer of the plurality of buffer layers. Each trench layer of the plurality of trench layers is down-doped with a down-dopant. The multi-core optical fiber has an inter-core crosstalk of less than −30 decibel/kilometres (dB/km) at a wavelength of 1550 nanometres (nm).
