Abstract(in English) To support broadband services in the future, WDM transport systems will soon need to support not only 2.4 Gbps services but also 10 Gbps services. This paper describes a new wavelength-division optical add-drop multiplexer(OADM)configuration that can accommodate 2.4 Gbps and 10 Gbps interfaces in optical amplifier repeater systems. In this configuration, we have introduced an Erbium Doped Fiber(EDF)switch between the pass-band-flattened Multiplexer / Demultiplexer(MUX / DMUX), such as Fiber Bragg Grating MUX / DMUX(FGM), in order to suppress signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)degradation and obtain adequate path-band width. In an experiment in 10 Gbps transmission over a five 80 km span, conducted using a re-circulating loop, we have found that the power penalty was less than 1.5 dB, and that there was no error rate floor observable anywhere in the system.
