Abstract :
First we discuss market opportunities for 40 Gb/s systems. Next we discuss practical requirements that 40 Gb/s systems must meet to become commercially deployed. Finally, we discuss the trade-off between the achievable transmission distance and the complexity/cost of transponders and line systems.
