Abstract
Soliton WDM transmission of four signals at 20 Gbit/s over 2000 km of standard fibre is achieved. With 100 km dispersion-compensated spans using polarisation multiplexing and prechirping. Single-wavelength transmission was performed over 2400 km. Without polarisation multiplexing, the transmission was limited to 1500 km
