Modal Chromatic Dispersion Compensating Fiber Channels using 100G Multimode Optical Transceivers

Using 100G multimode transceivers, we measure bit error rate over 300 m of dispersion and non-dispersion compensating multimode fiber channels. For both 100GBASE-SR4 and 100G-SWDM4 transceivers, all lanes showed performance advantages on dispersion compensating fiber.
