We show that low-cost multimode VCSElLs show sufficiently linear operation for operation in multimode fibre SCM systems. Dual source SCM systems are demonstrated with carrier frequencies up to 3GHz, indicating that multi-channel systems can readily be achieved for use in self-routing networks. Introduction Recently there has been much interest in the transmission of subcarrier multiplexed (SCM) signals over optical fibre, for example ini applications including cable television distribution and remote antenna addressing in mobile phone systems. SCM systems could also be employed in future computer interconnects and access netwoirks, where the ease of implementing carrier frequency changes readily allows for broadcasting and network reconfiguration.
