Abstract
Implementing the high performance and high reliability required in und ersea transmission systems demands careful design, as well as the care ful selection and management of technology. This paper explores the te chnology used in undersea systems that support optically amplified rep eatered applications at rates up to 5 Gbits/s. It provides a brief, hi gh-level description of a typical undersea system and its subsystems, then examines each of the subsystems and associated new technologies i n greater detail.
