Which consequence results in a fiber optic link when the signal's power exceeds the photodiode's saturation current limit?

💡 Explanation

Reaching the saturation current limit activates the photodiode's nonlinearity mechanism, causing clipping of the received optical signal because it cannot linearly convert high power into current; therefore, the bit error rate increases, rather than improving signal quality under normal operations.
