            Abstract : 
Error-free operation of a 100 GHz-spaced large scale (16 nodes cascaded over a total distance of 600 km) optical network system comprising 15 10 Gbit/s/channel channels has been reported. The add/drop nodes are composed of a wavelength interleaving filter and related multiplexer/demultiplexer.
