Wavelength-division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) is considered as a mainstream solution for 5G fronthaul transmission system to cope with the rapidly increasing demand of bandwidth. However, nonlinearity effects, especially the fourwave mixing (FWM) effect in WDM-PON systems will impair system performances in the transmission distance and channel capacity. In this paper, the influence of FWM effect on multi-wavelength system with 25 Gb·s-1 ·λ-1 non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal over 25 km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) transmission is explored by experiment and simulation. Study results show that in a 200 GHz spaced 12-channel system, the bit error rate (BER) of all channels, except for the first and last channels, cannot reach the threshold 1.0× 10-3 of forward error correction (FEC). This implies that FWM crosstalk should be given full consideration while making wavelength plans for 5G fronthaul system, including the wavelength distribution and channel spacing selection.
