The system performance has been tested using the first and last channels ofthe 3-channel available grid. The results show that the proposed system can establish a real-time Ethernet link with connection speed of up to 2 Gb/s with bit error rate <1x10-10, and having the potential for expanding its data transmission speed up to 3 Gb/s.4eng© 2015 International Cooperative of Plastic Optical FibersGigabit EthernetReal-timeSi-POFVisible WDMGreen photonicsconference posterElectrónicaopen access14CC/0000024176
