We demonstrate the existence of an optimal spectral efficiency that maximizes the power efficiency and/or capacity of a power limited erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA)-based space division multiplexing transmission system. Optimal spectral efficiency observed experimentally is in good agreement with a theoretical estimate.
