Abstract
Many recent transmission experiments have demonstrated the potential of long distance transmission systems using erbium-doped amplifiers [1],[2],[3]. However, to confirm the realization of a transoceanic system, the evaluation of a full-length straight line transmission experiment is essential. Also, supervisory(SV) signal transmission over the transoceanic distance has to be confirmed to realize a practical system. In this paper, we report for the first time a 10,073 km straight line transmission experiment at 2.5 Gb/s with supervisory signal transmission.
