Abstract:The FSA submarine optical amplifier system (submarine fiber using optical amplifiers) has been developed. It can transmit signals up to 10 Gbit/s with a repeater spacing of 100 km. The submarine repeaters contain optical amplifiers for six line pairs to yield a maximum capacity of 60 Gbit/s. This paper describes its system configuration, the repeater configuration, and the fiber dispersion management scheme used to realize bit-rate flexible transmission and in-service monitoring.In long-haul optical amplifier … Show more
