Abstract :
We report experimental demonstration of 8-PAM transmission using an 850 nm VCSEL and 100 m of OM4-type MMF. The 8-level driving signal was generated using a 3-bit DAC, the error rates were measured in real time using a conventional error analyzer. Maximum uncoded bit rate was 37.5 Gbps, which corresponds to 35.2 Gbps with 7% FEC overhead.
