Abstract
A 16-wavelength transmitter with 50GHz channel spacing was built by in terleaving two externally modulated singlemode 8-channel waveguide-gra ting-router multifrequency lasers. A poser penalty of < 0.4dB was meas ured on all channels modulated at 2.5Gbit/s after transmission through 627km of conventional fibre (17ps/km/nm).
