Abstract :
The interaction of fiber dispersion and nonlinearities enable optimal regimes of operation of amplified optical communication systems that use XFP transceivers. System performance is described using OSNR tolerances for OC-192 and OTU2 modulated signals. An improvement in OSNR of 3-dB is achieved when allowing approximately -500ps/nm residual dispersion in the link which enabled about 45dB link budget.
