Abstract
The authors have demonstrated 1.7 Gbit/s transmission over 165 km of dispersion-shifted fibre using a spectrum-sliced fibre amplifier light source. To the authors´ knowledge, this represents the largest bit-rate distance product (280 Gbit/s km) ever demonstrated using an incoherent light source. The dispersion penalty was very small (~0.3 dB) even at a wavelength 10 nm away from the dispersion-zero wavelength of the fibre
