This product line is a family of state-of-the-art high performance CATV erbium doped
fiber amplifiers (EDFA). Packaged in convenient 1RU housing, this line of fiber
amplifiers uses the latest DSP technology at the core of electrical control circuitry
resulting in superior output power stability & exceptionally low noise figures demanded
by CATV applications.
The NMOA8100 provides very stable optical outputs over a wide operating
temperature range. Internally it is supported with input and output isolators for
enhanced system stability and performance. Optical power is continuously monitored
at the input and output for automatic power control during operation over a wide
operating temperature range.
The NMOA8100 offers a rich set of features. These include remote management
capability through SNMPv2 and telnet. The NMOA8100 also supports MIBs specified
by SCTE (Society of Cable Television Engineers) for this product class. Additionally,
the front panel’s LCD and button provides the operator with the option to both monitor
the status of the amplifier and control/operate the amplifier locally.
