Abstract

Multiwavelength transmission over 217 km of nondispersion shifted fibre is demonstrated at 1.7 Gbit/s using an integrated 16×1 laser/modulator array. Bit error rate performance is reported for single channel transmission using seven of the laser/modulators at discrete wavelengths from 1.545 to 1.555 μm. Additionally, electrical and optical crosstalk penalties are measured in a two channel WDM experiment.
