An optical module advantageously uses optical conversion fibers not only for a single channel but for sets of channels that are, in a specific way, selected from a multi-channel wave division multiplex (WDM) grid. The sets of channels are defined such that four wave mixing is negligible or has a negligible effect. The optical module has a demultiplexer, a multiplexer, and parallel optical conversion fiber portions that are arranged between the demultiplexer and the multiplexer. Each of the parallel optical conversion fiber portions has a specific dispersion map and transmits a different set of channels of the multi-channel WDM grid. These channels are regularly spaced from each other.
