Abstract
As a demonstration of the upgradeability of conventional single-mode fiber systems, we demonstrate the transmission of eight 20-Gb/s channels over 232 km of nondispersion-shifted fiber using dispersion-compensating fiber with negative dispersion-slope. All channels were received without discernible transmission penalties. Due to fiber nonlinearity, differences were observed in system performance depending on the arrangement of the fibers.Keywords
