  • Abstract
    A 1.8 Gbit/s optical transmission system trial has been conducted over 65 km of conventional monomode fibre using a 1.478 μm DFB laser and p+n Ge APD receiver. Using a 215-1, NRZ, PRB test sequence, a long-term BER of 2×10-10 was achieved. Dispersive effects introduced a 1 dB penalty after 65 km transmission.
