Full validation of an optical 3R regenerator at 20 Gbit/s

An optical 3R regenerator combining semiconductor optical amplifier-based Mach Zehnder interferometers is assessed at 20 Gbit/s. Inserted in a recirculation loop including 110 mm of dispersion shifted fibre, more than 200 regenerators have been cascaded.
