  • Abstract
    We report experiments on a fully transparent free space optic system operating at 2.5,10 and 40 Gbps. A on-field system operating on a 100 m link as been implemented and tested. Results demonstrate that this kind of system is able to exploit the high bandwidth provided by the fibers and that it can support WDM transmission; in particular it could be a competitive technology in the last mile/last hundred of meters scenario.
