Which outcome occurs when chromatic dispersion overwhelms equalization processing in optical fiber?

💡 Explanation

Increased bit error rate occurs because chromatic dispersion causes pulse broadening, which the equalization processing attempts to correct, but if dispersion is too high, inter-symbol interference arises; therefore, bit errors increase, rather than other optical effects which are separately managed.
