Abstract

Using a practical erbium-doped fiber postamplifier, a dual-stage optical preamplifier, a lithium niobate Mach-Zehnder external modulator and a dispersion-shifted line fiber, IM/DD repeaterless transmission over 252 km at 10 Gb/s with a wavelength-independent receiver sensitivity in the 1530-1565-nm range is achieved.
