%X Per-channel launch power optimisation in a hybrid-amplified link with optimised pump powers and wavelengths is described. Compared to using the optimum spectrally uniform launch power, an average SNR gain of 0.13 dB is obtained against 0.56 dB for the same system operating with lumped amplifiers only
