Abstract

An all-optical 2R regenerator that consists of an ion implanted InGaAsP multiple-quantum-well saturable absorber, a nonlinear fiber, and an optical filter is presented. Error-free 10-Gb/s transmission over 7000 km of standard fiber with an amplifier spacing of 80 km is demonstrated in a recirculating loop experiment.
