Colorless operations are implemented by using commercially available reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers （RSOAs） at both the center office （CO） and the customer side. Four 1.25-Gb/s channels are successfully transmitted over 80-km single-mode fiber with four OADMs. The dynamic input power range of the RSOA is also investigated. Compared with traditional access schemes, the proposed scheme could cover the area along the feed fiber with no blind zone.
