  • Abstract
    A high speed optical drop function was observed using the continuous and discontinuous tuning range of a two-electrode DFB laser. Transmission at 1.7 Gbit/s was examined, and the switching signal enabled two bytes to be dropped. This demonstration is suited to SDH or ATM transmission and confirms the interest in multielectrode sources for optical crossconnect applications.
