Abstract :
Recent advances in VCSEL manufacturing and designed multimode fibers has opened an avenue to implement WDM for short distance links. This paper will focus on transmission performance of a new multimode fiber coupled with high speed VCSELs operating in a range of wavelengths from 850-980nm to deliver parallel transmission on a single fiber.
