contents Fault-tolerant fusion-based photonic quantum computing (FBQC) greatly relies on entangling two-photon measurements, called fusions. These fusions can be realized using linear-optical projective Bell-state measurements (BSMs). These linear-optical BSMs are limited to a success probability of 50%, greatly reducing the performance of FBQC schemes. To improve the performance of FBQC architectures, a boosted BSM scheme taking advantage of ancillary entangled photon pairs and a 4x4 multiport interferometer has been proposed. This scheme allows the success probability to be increased up to 75%. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate this boosted BSM by using two Sagnac photon-pair sources and a fibre-based 4x4 multiport beam splitter. A boosted BSM success probability of $(69.3\pm0.3)\%$ has been achieved, exceeding the 50% limit. Furthermore, based on our BSMs, we calculate photon-loss thresholds for a fusion network using encoded six-ring resource states. We show that with this boosted BSM scheme an individual photon loss probability of 1.4% can be tolerated, while the non-boosted BSM leads to a photon-loss threshold of 0.45%.
