Abstract
The wavelength of an intensity-modulated signal at 10 Gbit/s was trans lated from 1546 to 1531 nm using cross gain-compression in a semicondu ctor optical amplifier. The shifted signal was transmitted with less t han 1 dB penalty over a 121 km span of dispersion-shifted fibre with t wo in-line amplifiers. A dispersion penalty of nearly 2 dB is measured for transmission of 6Gbit/s data over 20km conventional fibre.
