The constantly growing needs in terms of speed and bandwidth, especially all services using data has become greedy. Today optical fiber is the medium of choice for many advantages over others channels. although the optical fiber has taken the label of transmission channels, we won’t be able to do without its nonlinear character and dispersions, which are part of the major problems during optical transmission. In this article, we are presenting the use of optical solitons in the fiber optic link, with a particular way; we have considered two kind of links, the underground one and the overhead one, in the first link, we have applied optical soliton in order to just take into account the optical Kerr effect. And for the overhead link, we can transmit for short distance by using the return to zero modulation’s format and the use of optical Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFA). The solitons which are the impulses, capable of propagating in the nonlinear optical fiber and dispersive without any distortion; to justify our hypothesis, we compare a dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) without soliton and the dense wavelength division multiplexing with solitons; we notice that, the link with soliton is better than the first because the pulse keeps its shape from the source up to the destination, its eye diagram is opened which means there is no much noises. After the simulations in Matlab and optisystem software, we went to Congo telecom, to do our test with the optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR), for both installations. From that study while transmitting over 100km it is better to use optical solitons with the high speed.
