Abstract
Two channel wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) over a 908 km path with seven in-line erbium doped fibre amplifiers (EDFAs) is reported. At the 10 Gbit/s transmission level the line exhibited a good performance margin and significant robustness to simulated faults. To the authors´ knowledge, this is the longest amplifier spacing reported in a system of this length at this line rate
