| Popis: | We experimentally demonstrate the possibility to achieve a polarization insensitive wavelength conversion, operating at 2.5 and 10 Gbit/s, based on multi-wavelength generation in dispersion shifted fibre. The wavelength converter, able to reshape and generate replicas of an incoming signal at several different lambdas by the optical Kerr effect, was placed, in the middle of a 100-km long generic point-to-point optical link obtained by using an installed cable between Rome and Pomezia (25 km). |
