channel applications
Safety Information
The Benchtop Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) amplifies optical signals
across the EDFA window (1528 to 1610 nm). Through optimization of
amplifier gain, noise figure, and saturated output power, the EDFA will expand
your test capabilities in systems, components or sub-assembly manufacturing
as well as research and development (R&D) environments.
The amplifier incorporates a unique design to produce maximum signal gain
and saturated output power in the 1550 and 1590 nm test bands while
minimizing noise figure. It features a user-friendly front panel housing an LCD
displaying input/output power, current control and an optical interface.
The amplifier is offered in C-band, L-band and C+L-band versions and
pre-amplifier, booster, or in-line amplifier configurations.
The Benchtop models provide specialized variants and optical performance not
available in the Multiple Application Platform (MAP) line. Additional EDFA
models are available in the MAP EDFA product line.
Complies to CE requirements plus
UL3101-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2
No. 1010.1 Meets the requirements
of Class 3B in standard IEC
60825-1(2002) and complies with
21CFR1040.10 except deviations
per Laser Notice No. 50, July 2001.
