C-band amplifier (EDFA, Bench Top)
Bench-top C-band erbium-doped fiber amplifiers in low-noise pre-amplifier, high-output booster and gain-flattened WDM variants. FiberLabs notes the design is not application specific and is also used for fiber sensing and fiber lasers.
Technical overview
The AMP-FL8013-CB is the low-noise-figure pre-amplifier line (NF <= 5 dB, output >= +13 to +19 dBm) and the AMP-FL8011-CB is the booster line (output up to >= +22 dBm, gain up to >= 40 dB, NF <= 6 dB). Both are specified 1530 to 1560 nm at a 1550 nm nominal wavelength, with the product header quoting a 1525 to 1570 nm range. The -W gain-flattened models hold <= 3 dB flatness with 1530 to 1560 nm signals at 0 dBm total input. All ship in an 88 x 260 x 350 mm chassis on G.652 SMF with FC/PC connectors.
Features
- Proven in Various Deployment Conditions (from R&D to Actual Network)
