Long term field demonstration of optical PMD compensation on an installed OC-192 link

We demonstrate the world's first long term optical PMD compensation for an OC-192 (9.95328 Gb/s SONET) signal on the installed fiber infrastructure of a network operator in East Texas. With a line PMD of 30 ps, BER improvement greater than 4 orders of magnitude has been achieved.
