16x2.5 Gbit/s downstream transmission in colorless WDM-PON based on injection-locked fabry-perot laser diode using a single quantum dash mode-locked fabry-perot laser as multi-wavelength seeding source

Error-free colorless WDM-PON downstream over 25 km for 16 channels with 85 GHz channel spacing is experimentally demonstrated at 2.5 Gbit/s, using an injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser and a quantum dash mode-locked laser as a coherent seeding source.
