Simultaneous all-optical regeneration and wavelength
conversion is demonstrated at 2.488 Gb/s for the first time
in an integrated distributed feedback laser/semiconductor optical
amplifier. After 93 km of standard fiber, a negative sensitivity
penalty of 1.3 dB is achieved upon wavelength converting alloptically
1548 to 1553.5 nm.
