Abstract :
We demonstrate a low loss higher-order-mode dispersion compensator that enables practical implementation of lumped or multi-span dispersion compensation schemes. The connector-to-connector module loss is 3.16 dB, and yields -886 ps/nm of dispersion, corresponding to compensation of 200 km of NZDSF.
