Which outcome occurs when chromatic dispersion distorts the optical signal in a long-distance fiber link nearing maximum bit-rate?

💡 Explanation

Increased chromatic dispersion causes pulse broadening, leading to inter-symbol interference because different wavelengths spread the signal over time, distorting the symbols; therefore error rates climb sharply, rather than efficient Raman scattering or stable polarization.
