We propose the experiment transport of 32 channels 10 Gbit/s dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system which uses large effective area fiber (LEAF) in combination with reverse dispersion fiber (RDF), which is a dispersion compensation device, in C and L band wavelength range to solve the dispersion program. The system structure transmission length of 800‐km consisted of 75‐km LEAF and 5‐km RDF for ten fiber spans. Q factor should be greater than 6 dB for good performance, corresponding to a bit error rate (BER) of less than 10 −9 , and all 32 channels have been measured for both Q factor and BER. The proposed system is applicable for ultra long‐haul transmission in DWDM systems. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
