Cons:
Potential non-linear interaction with 10G NRZ in same fiber
The cure is managing launch power
Probably represents the practical complexity limit for discretes
State of the shelf DSP technology draws too much power to allow for large
scale implementations (ie. multiple waves in one modules)
Solution is to use emerging 40m DSP technology
DSP operation probably eliminates the chance of future line side interop
So remember
today?
