Abstract :
All-Raman unrepeatered transmission over 440km of PSCF was achieved using backward and forward distributed pumping scheme and off-the-shelf terrestrial equipment. 8×10Gb/s channels were transmitted with good performance margin without using any intra-span component or special modulation format.
