Abstract :
Error-free N×10 Gb/s (N=2,3,4) WDM soliton transmissions with large 60 km amplifier spacing using 4-step dispersion management are demonstrated over 15 Mm, 7 Mm and 3.9 Mm respectively. We show that these results could actually be considerably improved in realistic straight-line implementation
