In [Opt. Express 15, 10061 (2007)] we proposed a new regime of multichannel all-optical regeneration that required anomalous average dispersion. This regime is superior to the previously studied normal-dispersion regime when signal distortions are deterministic in their temporal shape. However, there was a concern that the regenerator with anomalous average dispersion may be prone to noise amplification via modulational instability. Here, we show that this, in general, is not the case. Moreover, in the range of input powers that is of interest for multichannel regeneration, the device with anomalous average dispersion may even provide less noise amplification than the one with normal dispersion. These results are obtained with an improved version of the parallelized modification of the Multicanonical Monte Carlo method proposed in [IEEE J. Sel. Topics Quantum Electron. 14, 599 (2008)].
