Abstract :
The growing data traffic in the local area networks (LAN) is driving development of the cost-effective transmission systems that can carry it cost-efficiently. In this paper we propose and demonstrate the 1310 nm dense-wavelength-division multiplexed and polarization multiplexed transmission system. The demonstrated n×2×40 Gbit/s transmission system is based exclusively on semiconductor components without any form of the chromatic dispersion compensation or error-correction. Results of the conducted experiments show the excellent error-free 8×2×40 Gbit/s all-semiconductor transmission over 25 km of standard single-mode fiber. The demonstrated transmission system can be utilized to realize ultra-high speed connections like the next generation 400 Gbit/s and 1 Tbit/s Ethernet.
