Abstract
The authors report on a 10-Gb/s transmission over 1-mm large-core diameter polymer optical fiber (POF) using pulse-amplitude modulation. For the first time, a real-time 10-Gb/s eye-diagram is shown after 5-m standard step-index POF (SI-POF), even with an eye-safe transmitter (0 dBm). With an offline decision feedback equalization technique, a link length of 10-m SI-POF, respectively, 25-m GI-POF was achieved. With a slightly higher optical power of +5 dBm, the maximum link length could even be increased to 30-m SI-POF and 60-m GI-POF.
