Abstract
A sea trial of a 1.3 ¿m, 400 Mbit/s undersea optical repeater1,2 connected with a 1.3 km-long undersea optical cable was conducted in Sagami Bay at about a 700 m depth in January 1981. Stable performance for the repeater was confirmed, as it withstood such external mechanical forces as heavy tension, water pressure, vibration, shock and extreme temperature change during laying and recovering.
