Abstract
A combination of a high power Er/Yb fibre optic amplifier and a coherent transmission system are used to achieve very large optical link loss budgets of 70 dB at 167 Mbit/s and 67 dB at 622 Mbit/s. A transmit power of +18.2 dBm was launched into low loss optical fibre without evidence of stimulated Brillouin scattering.
