Abstract
A high-power optical transmitter module based on an SOA-assisted extended-reach EADFB laser (AXEL) chip was developed at a wavelength of 1.49 µm to improve the loss budget of current passive optical access networks. The fiber-coupled output power of the modulated signal is 10 dBm owing to the post-amplification effect of the integrated SOA with an extinction ratio of 10 dB. Fiber transmission was demonstrated at data rates of 1.25 and 2.5 Gbit/s, assuming GE-PON and G-PON downstream signals, respectively. Error-free transmission over 100-km fiber was achieved with loss budgets of 46 and 43 dB at 1.25 and 2.5 Gbit/s, respectively.
