Four transmission experiments through low-loss single-mode optical fibre at 1.3 μm have been performed at 274 Mbit/s and 420 Mbit/s with different objectives. The first demonstrates transmission through 101 km of single-mode fibre at 274 Mbit/s with negligible dispersion penalty. The second experiment at 274 Mbit/s and 84 km uses only components suitable for use in an undersea cable system. Two additional experiments, both at 420 Mbit/s, accomplish a bitrate × distance product of 35 GHzkm with 84 km of fibre and show no dispersion penalty with 63 km and 2.4 ps/km nm dispersion.
