Abstract
The authors have successfully demonstrated long-distance transmission experiments using densely-spaced WDM technology. 22 signal wavelengths, each containing 5 Gbit/s of binary data, were transmitted through a recirculating loop fibre transmission line; less than a 10-9 bit error rate equivalent was achieved after 9500 km of transmission on all channels
