Abstract
High dynamic range analog optical links are demonstrated using a variety of Fabry-Perot lasers, including commercial and custom devices. All of the devices demonstrate a dynamic range and noise figure close to that of an analog DFB laser for short (<2 km) links. The best devices have performance which rivals that of a typical DFB laser.
