A dispersion tolerant OC-192 optical transceiver includes the circuitry for implementing the method of reducing optical signal disposition in a high data rate data stream that travels on an optical fiber communications system. The circuitry includes circuitry for partitioning the high data rate data stream into a plurality of lower data rate data streams. The transceiver transmits the plurality of lower data rate data streams along an associated one of a plurality of separate wavelength channels. A wavelength division multiplexing circuit multiplexes each of the lower data rate data streams on the plurality of separate wavelength channels into a single optical fiber assembly to form a …

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 25, 1997 and granted June 10, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 25, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 25, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
