Status of Industry Efforts to Deploy EDC and Advanced Modulation Schemes for Extended Reach Transport Applications

The current status of industrial efforts to standardize interoperable optical interfaces applied to transmitters and receivers is reviewed with particular emphasis on the application of EDC and advanced modulation schemes emerging from OIF/ITU-T targeted transmissions over longer dispersion uncompensated distances.
