Abstract :
An all-optical regenerator has been demonstrated using two self-electro-optic effect devices (SEED) and a local pump laser. The regenerator´s optical signal processing included clock recovery, data retiming and signal amplification. A 2 dB optical gain was attained at a 5 kbit/s data rate
