Abstract-We report here the fabrication of fiber chromatic dispersion compensators, along with the tests of those components in wavelength-division-multiplexed transmission at 10 Gb/s and an analysis of their performance by simulation.

More and more, the capacity of telecommunication networks will have to be increased so as to meet the future needs of the customers in terms of bandwidth. ATM has been identified as a standard switching technique for the future broadband network. For these reasons an optical ATM switching architecture [1] has been proposed and recently demonstrated with the build up of a 4×4 switching matrix operating at 2.5 Gbit/s.
