Abstract
New transmission equipment employing a 1.55-μm distributed feedback laser diode (DFB-LD) to overcome fiber dispersion has been tested at environmental conditions using 1.3-μm zero-dispersion fiber cable on the undersea section of route F-400M. The DFB-LD´s dynamic spectrum characteristics, in relation to power penalty, were examined and a suitable laser prebias control level was obtained. Field experimental transmission lines operated error free for a two-month period, and applicability to 1.55-μm 445-Mbit/s systems of over 100 km was shown.
