Abstract

In this paper are evaluated the performances of a Super-Continuum generation based method to achieve wavelength conversion. The generation of the converted signal is exploitable to archive TDM demultiplexing. Some 2R regeneration capabilities of this system and the increased range of conversion is investigated.
